Motor Make-over

This is L.T.C's freshly imported V44. Admittedly, we'd love to lay claim to inventing this miraculous make-over, but we did actually copy the idea from a customer - Barry Garnham - his motor which is aptly named "The Beast" has featured on this page since we started it. Originally this LWB Pajero was GOLD/GREEN, but my Sister and I (never content!) intended it to attract more attention than the average, common-coloured Pajero.

We intentionally bought it as a bargain through our trusted Agents in Japan (You can also handpick your dream-motor to suit you down to the very last detail, from Japanese auctions, under our guidance and knowledge and we'll import it for you at the perfect price! - call 01303 893 003 should you require quotes/further info) to use as a cheap, but quality motor, to sport our accessory range and advertise this site (ideal for the rally's we attend all over the U.K.)

Personally I've always been disappointed at the Pajero/Shogun's limited colour range- (there isn't much of one lets face it!) No metallic's, no choice, the standard colours are so bland and so common and boring, So…… we suggested a much-needed colour change! to my Dads strong disapproval (as, apparently, this dramatically reduces the value of the motor - particularly in Dealers eyes.) His concerns lay in the possibility of losing a lot of money if we were ever to try to flog it on (Contrary to the usual easy profit to made in selling imports!)

Despite that friendly advice, we went ahead regardless and had our paint shop re-spray the centre strip maroon as well as the wheel cover hub and underbelly of the spoiler (Which was a fancy touch thought up by Barry - which we liked so much we had to use it too.) The result, we're all in agreement (Now that its been done!) is that it looks a thousand times better - a major improvement in comparison with what it looked like before. Then we loaded it with all our gear which can be found throughout this site.

Listed for your reference, the following can be found in:

The Chrome Door Trims were already on it (the rear pair are up for grabs in DEALS FOR WHEELS) If they ever arrive(!) in our new container, due after a lengthy 6month wait (we're taking orders already and advise you to contact us to secure reservations and avoid disappointment!) we'll most likely add LTC32 Grey Mud Flaps and finally, the finishing touch and what everyone's desperate for! LTC16 Chrome Hub Caps!

Last but not least, we had it sign written by our local graphic expert and had our company logo applied to the hub of the spare wheel cover - which put the edge on it for sure! You can achieve this look too! Costing just over a grand, this LWB has undergone the remarkable transformation from your average, common, rather dull Pajero to this modern, yet classy model that's full of character. If anything this Pajero looks SO much newer than it did in its original state and that factor alone should hold its value. I trust that we'll have no problems in receiving the asking price, should we ever decide to part with it. There are so many variations to be used - we don't all want to look the same these days! All are homes are different. We decorate them to make them different right?

So start pimping your rides! Be proud of a personalised Pajero, which stands out from the mainstream, because it fashions your unique touch. Here is a breakdown of costs for your benefit:

  • Paintwork by Panel'n'Paint 01303 891 020 Acrise/Kent - centre strip, spoiler and W/C hub costing £300. Accessories are our own and total approx £800.
  • Sign writing by Signgraphics 0130324098, Cheriton/Kent, and body text applied to front, sides and rear and hub logo cost £50-£80
