If you can, I suggest you wait for the refreshed Pajero with the 4M41 VGT engine which is already available in the Australian and Dubai (not sure) market. If not, and speed is not that important to you, the current Pajero should be fine.

Why not the 3.0 D-4D Prado?

Perhaps it is because it is not covered by the JPEPA discount which makes it almost 1M more expensive than the Pajero. And IMHO, its advantages over the Pajero certainly ain't worth a million bucks. I'm sure it'll be easy to modify the Pajero to be better than the Prado on and off road for significantly less than that price difference.

Phatrol then Paj. I think these cars will best suit your situation currently.

For me Prado.... gas guzzler?... naaaah... you can afford a multi million vehicle therefore gas price does not affect you much, your looking for luxury right.... no diesel engine can beat the smoothness and quietness of gas fed engine.
