A serious off-roader with 12 Dakar Rally wins behind the nameplate, the Pajero was sold in South Africa in short and long wheelbase form until the end of 2021. Local sales closed out with the Legend 100 limited run when global production stopped. Used values are modest for the capability on offer, which makes it a favourite with overlanders on a budget.
