Anyone knows what's the true top speed of Pajero sfx ? BSIII and BS IV models ?

Both the BS-3 & the BS-4 models hit around 170kmph on the speedometer. Give or take a 5% error on that.

While the middle row is super comfortable for 2 people and can manage to seat 3 average sized adults, the last row is short of legroom for long drives. Ride quality of course, has nothing to complain about.

Hello Devdath, I was just about to message you on FB (POCIN) but backed off since you probably might not see that, as you are not in my friends list :) Thanks a ton for posting this by reading my mind.

As long as its capable, that information is enough for me. Obviously except a few stretches we cannot do 120kmph plus legally so that's not my territory. And i do not get offended when a maruti overtakes me at a faster speed. Looking for reliability and go anywhere capability this time. Plus space and ride comfort.

Any tips on validating the odometer claims ? Beyond the regular checks ?

And to all, i got a call from a dealer in Mumbai saying he got auto box SFX which was imported/assembled by Mitsubishi India and sold to a customer on request. Supposedly about five of them came to India. Is that true ?

Thank you genesis, navin_v8 for the quick responses.

That should be worth checking - I don't think someone can simply plonk an automated gear box and change documents so easily , as long as you have an Indian dealership bill in INR you don't have anything to worry on Imports .

Regarding your query on speeds - you can go to 180 + as per speedo but after 140- or so it does sound very differently and does not like to be stretched .Rear Seats are super comfy and best works for 2 adults .
Checking Odo or condition is going to be very difficult - you can check ownership history - , if possible stick to single owner with multiple vehicles - if you can find one . I still repent having sold mine :Frustrati
