nola. im 21 still studying leh. not even have any job
i'm just sharing to you guys about it
it is my friend's car. and i heard he's going to sell it
don't know la, last minute change decision and decide to keep it
who know, but he said if offer price is good, then might consider to let this beast go
*
well, ask him to keep it, perhaps finding the right buyer would come in time to own this rare beast. or just keep on maintaining it so it becomes a classic and can ask for classic car roadtax, hehe

lol the wrangler, thats more 4x4 relevant. btw oly im using the bridgestone a/t 694 on the wrangler. beats the stock sime tyres anytime! hehe, 5 years warranty on tires and expected 7 years on lifespan, pretty durable tyres if you tell me. oh yeah, my dad's rexton was using the bridgestone oem tyres made in japan, pretty good quality if you tell me. then was replaced with toyo open country tyres, they were really good wet tyres and i drove them like hell on the freeway, hehe

im using the same tire as yours...nice...made in japan too...toyo open country more to highway unlike the bridgestone a/t...

yeah, lol, if going offroad, the jeep wrangler would be the answer. the rexton is merely an SUV, which i use to carve corners and go fast with the turbo diesel engine biggrin.gif

car is in tip top condition, director owner car, rarely used and always garaged, paintwork is tip top, minus dints from other car door opening. leather is good, except some peeling, no big feat

Are you sure triton's back seat sempit? Mykids are happy sitting at the back compared to my old Merc C200, lot of space for the leg room too ..

Nice price you get it there .. hmm, the previous owner spent 43k? .. wonder if it is worth it to get one now .. been thinking of getting a T5 instead with less problem.. or probably just go for a korean made suv smile.gif
*
i have people that can recommend u a t5 if u want to. if anything, an xc90 is a worthy investment. the only suv with non collapsible roof. since the roof is made of boron, its 5 times tougher than steel! so, in case of a rollover u wont die. if u hit someone, less chances ud die too. in federal auto ipoh , i saw a previous gen s80, hit a barrier at about 180kmh and the front windscreen havent shattered plus front doors still can open. imagine what kind of safety the xc90 has. skip the korean made suv, if not, if u want new, go get a chevrolet captiva, best deal outside, just dont expect much on the resale value, but much better than mitsubishi pajero sport (tested). if not also look for a used mazda cx-9, maybe can fit ur budget

just go for the real new pajero, not the pajero sport !

i agree with you the pajero exceed is a proper japanese 4x4. the pajero sport however is an el cheapo.
people who thinks the pajero sport is good in handling, has not tried premium or better suvs. for a 150k range 4x4
do consider the chevrolet capitiva or the hyundai santa fe, much better idea. the new diesel unit from the hyundai is more efficient and fast

however if u can afford a rm280k for a pajero 3.8 v6
u could consider a volvo xc90 d5 2.4 diesel or a mazda cx-9 3.7 v6

volvo is a better known conti than the mitsubishi and the mazda is a much beautiful car than the pajero sport.
