You don’t see many of these in Au

[Pajshomoneroguntero]

Looks in good nick except for the radiator top tank. Don't know why the pics with the number plate are blurred though, one of them isnt, one is blurred but readable and the plate number is in the description


It'd be fun to have one but I wouldn't want to take it off road so what's the point really at the end of the day?

[Ian Sharpe]

Yeah I’d be reluctant to leave it unatttended anywhere either , so not really a daily driver

[Alex86]

Wasn’t this one advertised a few years ago?? Looks familiar.

It’d be nice to have, just because.

It even has the reversible screwdriver in the toolkit, rare as!!!!

[Drewan]

Reversible screwdriver pfft theres a bloke on Gum Tree with a working torch for sale

So were the recaro seats on pajero bases?

[stumagoo]

pretty sure the recaro's are factory in these... having said all that I am pretty sure this has been up for sale before as well and around 10k less.... I think its a "I dont need to seel it but if someone is really keen...." sort of price--- if the car is the one I am thinking of the guy hs been on the WA Paj page a few and does drive it just not a lot

[Ian Sharpe]

Yeah I think the recaros are factory but if you look at the pics , they look like they are on paj bases but maybe the seats were made to spec for Mitsubishi from recaro to match the trim?

[JOHNVOR]

Those recaros are from factory at the evolution model. I know that. I am owner of one evolution my self. they are great car. Much much better from a pajero gen 2. it has all the best things the factory could put on it. and i am not talking only for the engine. The car looks mint but a little expensive.

The issue here is you could count on 1 hand the amount of these legally on the roads

In a country with 27 million people and likely 1/2 as many more cars.... evo Pajero's are extrememly rare

[aussieguy]

pretty sure Australian population is 25.5M

Anyhow, not 100% sure but pretty sure you can import one from Japan under the new grey import rules, I have a website bookmarked at home for an online auction that has lots of Gen 2 Pajero's (especially SWB NL) and they always have 1 or 2 Evo's listed.

Really I thought when we got here 109 years ago it was supposed to be 26million so I figured must be 27 by now.... all us kiwis invading you know....

But in reality with 2500 NL Paj evos built total and no way of importing them unless its a personal (owned and driven overseas for over 12 months with proof) its still very hard to see them on the road legally here.

[BruceandBobbi]

There are car yards in OZ selling nothing but imports from Japan.

yep but the share rarity of the NL evo and the lack of demand for it here (there really is not a lot compared to a skyline or supra or lancer evo) mean that there will be stuff all of them imported... and until recently they were not on the Sev's list so could not be imported under regular channels anyway - still not sure if they can be

If the vehicle is on the road & registered then it has to be legal don’t you think?
