1993 Pajero Exceed LWB
Posted: Thu Jul 25, 2013 2:02 pm
Well the time has come for dad to part with his LWB Pajero in favour for a small eco box that's easier on the body. So as of right now, his truck is up for sale. 
Make: Mitsubishi
Model: Pajero Exceed
Import/UK: Import
Year: 1993
Engine CC: 2800 TD
Mileage: 200k kilometers
Condition: 3.5 - Auction grade
Seats: 7
Tax: Nov 13
MOT: March 14
ICE:Sony Xplod head unit. (unknown speakers, possibly Sony)
Extras:Snorkel, Offroad mud/Snow tyres, Wooden polished Nardi steering wheel, OE vented bullbar.
Not included in sale: Roof crate, front OE foglamps, CB system. (But can be kept on for additional cost, see below price)
Plus Points:
New cylinder head, top end gaskets/seals, glow plugs, water pump, idler bearings, radiator, hoses, thermostat, temp sensor, stretch bolts, oil + filter change, front exhaust section.
Problems:
Faulty gear change sensor on side of gearbox. (clean up or new sensor required)
Body/Interior:
The truck is very solid throughout, nothing rotten underside or on the body. It does have the odd scratch here and there on the panel work but it's only dermal layer so it can be buffed out. The interior is excellent condition let alone for its age, there aren't any digs, tears, burn holes or stains on any of the upholstery. Just like mine it has the fold down bed option interior which is surprisingly comfy for a vehicle.
Tyres:
It comes with four offroad mud and snow tyres, the same as I have on my Pajero. They're pretty grippy on the road, for what they are and very capable offroad.
Engine:
Has plenty of power, I mean this thing for nigh on 2.4 tons flys like a rocket. Kick down system and overdrive work perfectly fine.
Transmission:
gear changes are very smooth and change down quickly on kick down. Only thing recently is that the garage found that there is a fault with the gearbox sensor (have the fault code at home) the sensor is outside the gearbox and picks up rotational movement. This has stopped working (either needs a clean or the plug wiring needs sorting) or the unit itself needs changing. Thus it throws itself into limp home mode. Which goes away when you shut down and start up again. It also drives fine in manual mode, so this is only an electronic fault and not the gearbox itself. This is the only problem with the truck.
4WDmission:
From standard it has the full Super Select system that allows you to change from RWD > 4WD whilst on the move. (has auto locking hubs unlike Land Rover) has rear LSD lock on the next motion and then finally a rear and centre diff lock. Again these are controlled from the cabin.
Suspension:
The suspension is still OE which is much better than the aftermarket ones people fit when they stop working. These are EDFC dampers that you can control from the cabin, all four corners work fine.
Parts not included in sale:
Nothing to worry over, but for my SWB I'll be taking the OE factory mats out of dads (replacing them with my non OE ones) and the front Pajero fogs will come off too.
Photos:
I will hopefully take some interior shots tonight after we've collected the new car.
Because dad bought a car last night (we collect today) it needs to move a bit sharpish as his policy is costing him a bit to insure two vehicles. So, here are some obligatory photos and of course will take some more on request of the whole truck including detail shots of what you want to look at.
