Pajero Jr in Cochin..

vinsanity · 2nd February 2005, 09:16

It wasn't that bad..
It was an OK kind of one...

aadix · 2nd February 2005, 10:00

hmmm....wonder who would buy such a vehicle...
must be some specific reason

vinsanity · 2nd February 2005, 10:17

Why do you feel so?!!

GTO · 2nd February 2005, 10:55

Maybe this was the one he is talking about. Taken a second back from my office.

Heres the car in front. Must say that Merc has got the E-Class design spot on!

GTO

vinsanity · 2nd February 2005, 11:16

Yup, thats the one i saw..
So, its a common one there?!!

The one GTO posted?!!

But it looked similar to the one I saw.. Mine had a Pajero Jr at the back...

speedsatya · 2nd February 2005, 20:55

guys,
isnt it called the Pinin .
is pinin different from the mini pajero.

Stratos · 2nd February 2005, 21:38

Pinin is a very small version of the Pajero. Its basically a 3 door Pajero but much smaller than the 3 door Pajero!! Confusion right!!
Here is the pic of a Pajero Pinin

vinsanity · 3rd February 2005, 13:39

So my question is that if Pajero Jr and Pajero Pinin is the same?!!

artofzen · 5th February 2005, 17:14

Vinsanity,The one you are talking about ,if i am not mistaken, is a pajero jr.It is owned ny Koyenco group.They have two Jrs.One red with kerala regn and a maroonish one with KA regn.

vinsanity · 7th February 2005, 10:06

Ok,
I guess the one I saw is the maroonish one.. Dint see the regn though.. But on the net it is said as red.. Very confusing, that!! The maroonish and red is confusing.....

The Blue SUV seen in GTO's roof top shot is that of a 3 door Pajero,not a Pinin.Probably 2003-2004.The Pajero Jr. IS the Pajero Pininfarina.I've seen a maroon example a few times in Calicut.It sported a KL-01 reg.(No. for Trivandrum,Kerala's Capital).And no,the bright red Pajero that was once owned by the Koyenco Group in Kerala was a 98' 3 door,Regd. in Calicut.It was sold a year or so back to a guy I know in Cochin.The Koyas have a lot of foreign metal in their garages,but as far as I know,they don't own any Pinins,though they might have one or more full size Pajeros,which I'm not sure of.I'd wondered who'd bother to import such a small SUV,when I saw the Pinin a few months ago.It's so small and a petrol to boot!Would'nt it have been better to get a used full sized (3 or 4 door) Pajero for the same dough?Turbo Diesel without the hassle?I guess we all have our wierd ideas,right?

I saw the mitsubishi emblem as it came closer.. There was a Z 1 or something written in the side.. And once it crossed me it read a Pajero Jr behind..
Never seen one before.. It was kind of maroon in color.. Din't get a pic of it nor was i able to get a look at the number plate..

The road was really crowded(Man traffic in Cochin)...
This was a 3 door version of the Pajero... Pretty smart looking though and compact..

_Cheers_

Yo Ricky I saw it too, near the stock exchange.
