Re: wanted daily driver
like your choice on what to buy mate. both worth looking at further. the smokey one. he says glow plugs been done head been done etc so glow plugs arnt the smoke issue so thinking compression may be down and not able to fire the fuel properly.300 km goes with that too. compression test, leak down test a must. I hate those 2.4s but when good they go ok. just seen too many go boom. prados I like. radius arms etc. couple years later prado have 1kz engine. more dollars tho. if it does blow up one of your 350s will sort it



Re: wanted daily driver
I have a SWB pajero 1990 2.5TD im about to put it up for sale just getting a 3 month rego this week for it, put 1000kms on the RUCs and got a brand new WOF. Has 31" mint A/T goodyear wranglers on it, raised rear and wound torsion bars. Im looking for around $2700 depending, before I bought it the engine was pulled out and rebuilt (15000KMs ago), I did the glow plugs last year and put them on a switch. Let me know if you are keen.
Cheers
