I had underestimated it badly, it did well considering the rubbish tyres, A few weeks earlier a Jimny impressed me too, I'm having to scrap the old Jap C**p thinking.

I worked in the desert oilfields of Libya for 4 years and had a Desert Pack Defender 90 for running to the remote stations & wadi bashing. I thought it was the bee's gonads.
I bought the Pajero because the price was right and I needed something to tow the horsebox. When I took it off road I was impressed. I expected it to get stuck in the 1st field, but it didn't, it just kept plodding on.. and on... and on. The amount of comments you get back from other off roaders that have never been out before with a Shoggy / Paj is quite satisfying. Why not ask the Shoggy owner for a bash in it nest time you are out together you might be surprised!

Jump up and down on the a few times and they're back into some sort of reasonable shape. With them you will ground a little easier however you just add it to the forward momentum to slide it that little way extra!
Jim,
Don't underestimate the Pajero / Shoggy as a toy. I have ended up pulling out Defenders that got stuck where I had just ploughed through before now.
I suppose most of it is down to driver competency really.

Simon

i had a paj lwb for over 3 years, and its off road ability was never on doubt, but it was hopless on road, the engine was weak (2.5tdi) in both power and reliability, it kept throwing cam belts off because of the daft balancer belt breaking, which i eventually left off, and it struggled to get over 60mph
but off road, its was great 8)
