a few months from now, aabot na sa more than 2.5M ang brand new GU Patrol. so, tataas din kaya ang resale value?

odell::: Intayin mo si lc80 magpost para may first hand experience and knowledge ka. Payag naman siguro yun ipa-test drive sa iyo sa city limits.

Odell, OEM Maroon pa din yung Patrol dito.

Ang sa akin lang, hindi din ako talaga kampante sa mga nagsasabing ipa-check sa suking mekaniko. Dapat ikaw mismo bilang may-ari or driver ang nakakaintindi sa kung paano gumagana ang isang sasakyan at kung anong proseso ang pinagdaanan nito sa paglilipat ng manibela mula sa kanan papuntang kaliwa at lahat ng mga sistema at piyesa na kasali sa prosesong ito.

Kung sa iyong tingin ay sapat na ang nalalaman mo tungkol dito, then magandang investment/proyekto ang converted na sasakyan.

Ako marami-rami pang aaralin bago ko makamit ang minimithi kong J-top. Huhuhu...

Otep is right, mas maganda kung marunong ka sa kotse, there a lot of things to consider din in getting a converted suv.

actually yung difference sa converted and orig are the small details w/c you usually take for granted sa local cars, these little things will grow on you if you don't accept them as they are (parang babae yung pinag-uusapan natin dito ah...)

like for example the a/c, sa tingin mo mukhang orig but check out the controls, yung setting for defrost, foot vent, heater, doesn't work anymore.

as for the steering components, you can either reinforce the convertion or change to prig LHD parts

But if you can live with these, you get a loaded vehicle w/ a bunch of stuff w/c local ones doesn't have, & your getting it at a much lower price.

Ang converted Pajero pwedeng may rear difflock. Ang local wala. Pwede din naman ang mga Mid-East specs para orig LHD. Pero mahal sila kahit as used cars. Mas mahal pa sa local of the same age and condition.

IMO ok lang yun converted. Just bring a trusted mechanic to check on parts na important. Kung di ka sure, palitan mo ng orig afterwards. compare mo na lang kung magkano magagastos mo kung local ang bibilin mo. Siguro, much better if you would try to learn more dun sa sasakyan na trip mo.
