Mitsubushi Shogun Sport

Does anyone on here have a Shogun Sport 2.5td Warrior (Manual Gearbox). Looking at perhaps a 54 plate. What do you think of it? Having quite a few power isssue problems with my Isuzu and have been offerred the above as a swop out alternative. Going to test drive it this weekend but just wanted to ideally go armed with some feedback.

Hi

I have a Pajero Sport 2.5 TD, it's the same car. Just another name in another country.

I have had it since 2000, and it's great. Not the fastest car, but no towing problems with my 8 mter boat.
I do use the low gear when pulling out off the water.

Only thing is the 4 wheel drive.
It only locks the center diff. not the front and rear ones.

In the 5 years I have had it, I have only change the alternator (But it was quiet expensive)

Replacement parts on Mitsubishi are expensive, but it's a nice car.

Go fore it.

Regards
Rene

Just tell 'im you're researching potential client base demographic and cross referencing socio-economic stratification whilst statistically modelling, that'll keep him off your back for an hour or three

A lot of Ford shares are owned by Britain and a lot of their top execs are also British. Not long ago the Chief Exec was a Scotsman and the vice president a Welshman!!!

Also most of the LR operation is still based here!!!

You know you could go far talking like that . Thats exactly what i was doing
No freebies (a few perks like driving round the test track now and again)if there were i'd be first in the queue

Codders, you will note that I haven't joined in on the "let's bash Codders" thread, but you really do try what little patience I have, but you really are becoming a bore.
