Depends on what year, the regulations changed a lot. But Mitsubishi's 6G engines were incredibly tough. The 6G75 which is the 3.8 petrol in Gen 3 and 4 Pajeros regularly has been modified to 400hp+ and is a bulletproof design. A fun fact is that Mitsubishi entered in a few Dakar models a redesigned block from the 6G75 where it was run as a 3.0 V6 quad compound turbo diesel (yes QUAD). They were only allowed a tiny 19mm air restrictor on the intake yet even so it made 206kW and 520Nm of torque. Opened up it is estimated that it would easily have made over 400hp and 800-1000Nm from a 3.0 diesel in the early 2000s which is just mental.

Very underrated car. Unfortunately they no longer make such cars today. It's almost like car companies forgot how to make good simple utility cars. The EVO version is great for fun only. But If you want to go offroud you should get the standard version with solid rear axle and factory airlocker. 3.5V6 is strong motor. But Diesel is better for offroud if don't need to go fast. I bought one for my gold prospecting adventures for $3.5K SWB 3 door 2.5 TD manual. Permanently locked center diff and factory air locker in the back. It's surprisingly capable offroud. It has good factory steel protection plates under the engine and gearbox. Front suspension is adjustable. And the rear is very easy to lift with simple springs swap. Add some good MT tires and it goes everywhere. It's on par with modern 4 Runner or Bronco. But 10 times cheaper.😃

Beautiful!!! probably one of the best 4x4 of all times... at least of this last 30 years... because nowadays there is not so much that could be like it.

Excellent reviews. Congrats. I have a Pajero Full 2 Doors V6 2004 in Brazil and it is really a car beyond its time.

As someone who mostly just drives pajys I dream! Of owning one of these. I've had the 3.5, 3.8 and ATM I have the 3.2td direct injection. I love them all. My baby's ❤️

Now that's an Off road beast... I remember when they were winning Dakar and dominating the off road scene. It's a beautiful vehicle.

i owned one of the first ones to come to Canada. Sunk it in a nasty pond in Yellowknife Northwest Territories. froze in there over night, got demolished trying to pop it back up over the ice. Had to let it go Can say from experience, best 4x4 ever made. Favorite car of all time, perfect for Canada.

Still a proud owner of my 3.2 DID Pajero. And I'm not getting rid of it any time soon and it's the manual version! I love this thing!

I have a 2004 Pajero full and it's an actual war tank. Thank you for giving it the prestige it deserves

Seen one of these in person at MOD 2018. Didn't know I had stumbled across a legend.

I loveeee the way that looks!! Props for giving a shout out to the early FXTs, as an '05 owner that was a nice little bonus, they really are fantastic cars!
