Bye Bye Challenger

Well, the Challenger has now been replaced by a Pajero Exceed. Still not a Toyo but my turn next . The navigator wanted the luxury. Good wagon just the same

Allan,

Had an NM petrol for three years-not a minutes trouble. A great car. Lovelly on the road, great tow vehicle and still capable off road. Enjoy

This is an NM Lynn. I will soon find out when I hook the Van up to it. Got to be stronger than the Challenger.

Allan,

Yes, upgraded as the kids got bigger. Now have 105,000K on it with no serious problems. Put in an ARB/OME lift, Dual battery, LR fuel tank, run Cooper ST-C's and have a few other bits and pieces. Performs well in all terrain. Brilliant for outback touring but a bit painful when rock hopping.

Going up to Jamieson after the 10th (not sure of exact date yet so will try it out there.. It came with Geolander G039's rubber ,which is a damn sham.. Why do Mitsubishi insist on putting such tame tyres on the 4bys?
