Welcome Johan. Fine looking Pajero you have there.

Nico.

Welcome Johann, and nice wheels.

Quick question... those tyres seem a bit wider than normal, or is it me?

Thanx gentelmen.

I am very happy with my New Toy. Cats, the one pic was taken on the way to the top of the Swartberg Pass outside Prins Albert in the Western Cape, and the other one was taken on the same trip on the Robensons Pass between George and Oudtshoorn. Dirt roads, but nothing you cant do with a car.

Simon, I only had chance to drive her for about 2 weeks. I am not sure about the size, but I do know she needs new rubber soon. The spare is a standard mag and the same size as the other wheels, so I presume it is the standard size. When I'm back in December I'll change rubber and do some odds and ends to her. Not a lot of time to do things though as I am planning to show Natalie, (my girl), the beautiful Karoo and do some decent offroading in the mountains. Will put some nice pics on after that.

Welcome Johan,

Nice wheels.
