gen 3 pajero 3.2 or patrol 3.0(diesel variant)

[XTO]

to suv enthusiasts: didn't find if there was any bet these 2 before.

what are the pros and cons. particularly fuel consumptions and

riding comfort. considering they're in the same price range. TIA

[OTEP]

Riding comfort hands down sa Pajero. All independent coil spring supsension, monocoque body, low center of gravity. Rides and drives like a car. Some people can't even stand the ride of a stock Patrol (baka maarte lang, hehehe).

Pajero makes 165bhp coupled to a 5 speed A/T with Sportronic, the Patrol is not far behind with around 150bhp mated to a conventional 4 speed A/T. For refinement, the Pajero has a small edge over the coarser ZD30.

No idea about fuel consumption.

Pajero also has a more idiot-proof 4wd system with fulltime mode and traction control assistance (M-ASTC). The Patrol has a more basic system but is still shift on the fly.

My vote: Nissan Patrol GU A/T.

Hahaha! Ok ka sa review, Otep. Nagulat lang ako sa end vote

*xto, if it's for more on-road purposes, as you mentioned riding comfort and fuel consumption, i'd take the pajero. but if you've got more "serious business" in mind, this patrol should be easier to mod, and perhaps more capable offroad.

some people in other countries would agree. if you're not going serious offroading, a gen3 is fine. but if you do, then go patrol.

Other stuff:

*The Pajero has a standard pintle hook. All you get with the Patrol is a sissy tow ring (you can swap in a pintle hook if you want).
*The Pajero has a bigger interior owing to the monocoque construction and independent suspension. Cabin space in the Patrol is on the tight side especially considering how generous the exterior dimensions are.
*All GEN III's have ABS

Gen 3 Pajero for me. More power, looks better (IMO), rides and drives better.

[kimpOy]

PAjero for me....


may issue ang turbo ng mga patrol eh...

[mikmik316]

Pajero din... more because of the ride comfort... Lahat ng Patrol owners na kamag anak ko sinumpa yung ride comfort ng Patrol nila e....

[bolantoy]

pajero, fun to drive. di bitin sa power, 8 km/liter city driving. 2.488 million na lang with HID pa.

bias no?

what's wrong with patrol's turbo? i have logged 150K kms with my patrol and it still drives like brand new.

mu vote goes to the gen3 pajero. i like its ride a lot better. the patrol is really choppy and harsh especially the rear end. the interior is roomier in the pajero too, and i like the disappearing 3rd row seat which is roomier and more comfortable compared with the patrol's side facing jump seats.

malakas ba sa banggaan ang pajero? so far, more VIPs prefer the patrol as their security escort above others

[OTEP]

The Nissan Patrol barely passes existing crash test standards. But that's not to say it's unsafe.

perhaps maybe coz it looks more imposing than the pajero?

[badsekktor]

pajero ako kasi bagay blingblings sa pajero sa patrol naman off road setup ang bagay pero pwede ba pareho????

[Kikkomann]

[SIZE=1]Pajero din po ako.

Yung Gen2(?) na Pajero ng ermats ko ay mas magaan pang dalihin sa Lancer namin. Hehehe.[/SIZE]

Natumbok mo kung bakit ayoko ng patrol - ayoko magmukhang security escort e.....
