A bloke here at work has a sister who lives and works in East Timor.  Turns out she bought an io because they're one of the few cars over there that can handle the crap roads.

Naturaly I asked for a photo.

I don't think that's an iO

We get those here - it's the Pajero Jr. - quite a bit smaller than an iO, about the size of a Suzuki Samurai (or Sierra) - have a bad rep for weak auto transmissions.

SMALLER THAN AN IO???? 

SMALLER THAN AN IO????  Bloody hell.  Is that even possible?  That's bordering on the size of a kids ride on toy car then.

Incidently ..... this one has an auto transmission ....and YES, it has been toublesome.

Yes - they are tiny things - they seat four (minus luggage)

And there's an even smaller one - the Pajero Mini.

There are four "sizes" of Pajero - the "full sized" Pajero with the various V6 & diesel engines, our beloved Pajero iO, with a choice of 1.6, 1.8 & 2.0, the Pajero Junior which has a 1.1 litre engine, and the Pajero Mini, which is a Japanese Kei class with a 660cc engine.

I love the wheel arches on

I love the wheel arches on the Junior.

The mini version would be a fun project / mud basher.  Don't know about touring in it though.....blush
