Mas pogi yung Prado... I personally don't like the clear tail lights of the new Pajero.

Cons between the two, I think you can get a diesel Pajero for almost the same price as the 4.0L petrol Prado.

Pajero is cheaper than the Prado, IMO has the better looking interior and better sound system. But the Prado has the more powerful engine, better handling and offroad capability courtesy of the KDSS. But I'd suggest you get the Dubai Pajero diesel instead. It comes with more features, pretty much the same or even lesser price and is rumored to have the 200hp VGT 4M41 engine already.

Pajero is cheaper than a Prado by 1Million Pesos. Get the Pajero it's a steal. The Prado has roll-over issues, also it's cousin the Lexus GX.

What happened to your injection pump? Did you know the cause?

I have an almost 4yr old Pajero with 110K kms on the odo, so far no major problems encountered naman.

what happened ? i have not heard any pajero bk problems yet ? probably you got a lemon ?

pajeros are tested for its durability. just look at the older ones. fix up the exterior a little bit then it will run smoothly.

the lc200 is a bit expensive for the ts since his budget is only below 4m, very far from the price range of the lc's which is 4.5+.

between the choices given, id pick the pajero. better looks. bigger, well basing from the exterior and cheaper too. sound system is a plus. nicer. and yeah, if its diesel then you'll save a lot especially nowadays where gasoline can cost you -60/l.
