Is the Mitsubishi Pajero Sport the best value 4WD family wagon?

 

QUESTION

Hi John,

I've been neck deep in researching for the best caravan towing vehicle which is also family oriented for four meaning it’s comfortable and four-wheel drive capable.

I'm leaning towards the Pajero Sport Exceed, but I’m certainly open to suggestions.

I guess my budget is around the $60,000 mark, I'm currently living and working in Abu Dhabi but I will be home permanently in mid-July.

I would love to step off the plane and into a new vehicle.

Thanks for your help,

Matt

Buying a 7-seat 4X4 wagon in Australia is serious business when you’re in need of an off-roader that can carry plenty of adventure gear, the family and tow a big boat or trailer. But spending six figures of your hard-earned money means asking some tough questions, and giving honest answers.
