1990 Mitsubishi Montero

Vintage Pajero, Montero, Raider : 185k miles, gets 18mpg, has plenty of power and creature comforts. Works great as a city commuter and weekend four-wheel-drive adventure machine. Classic style with modern fuel injection, air conditioning and automatic transmission. Reliable and simple, able to keep up with modern traffic, armored and ready for the trail. Fully optioned, family owned for the first 30 years, serviced at Mitsubishi dealerships and Rallysport Engineering of Costa Mesa CA; a shop very familiar with Mitsubishi performance and service. Ready for adventure, this rare well-loved SUV is one of the last body-on-frame mid-size off-roaders.
