Few weeks later we were in Chennai for a friend’s wedding and we ended up meeting the person from whom my friend had bought the Prado. We tried finding out it but it became a wild goose chase with dead ends.

Anyway, we let it pass and then few weeks later we heard of a 3L V6 powered Mitsubishi Pajero SWB petrol for sale in Chennai. Developed interest in it friends found out that it had come from Delhi just few days ago but did not look too good in the current condition. In the meantime a friend got a Prado from Chennai and while seeing pictures of that pace I spotted a SWB Prado in the garage there. Many months passed and with help of friends did get leads of few SWB 4x4s but on close inspection they turned out to be duds.

Ěbility to modify it in future for lift kit, snorkel, diff locks etcĬhances of hailstorm in a desert are more than finding a good condition Nissan, Pajero, Prado at a reasonable price and with me adamant on having a SWB made matters worse.

ĝecent offroad capability to take me till the offroad spot, mud trails, jungle trails, and an occasional offroad etc.

Reliability – wanted to use it as my daily ride.

ğew creature comfort like decent ride (on tarmac & bad roads), handling, A/C, PS Music and rattle free.

ğull Hard Top for luggage security & personal comfort during long distance travel & park anywhere.

Had to be a Japanese SWB 4x4 (Prado, Pajero, Nissan) So, I was on a lookout for a 4x4 and I had the following as my criteria for the next 4x4 I would buy:

I had also pretty much done all that I wanted to do with Spidey (except coil over) & hence wanted to move on and selling Spidey was firmly on my mind.įew weeks of deliberations and Spidey found a new home at one of my best friend's garage.

After many years of owning and having a great time with Spidey, I had decided that I would slowly move away from active offroading & get more involved in expedition trails & camping.
