Hello from Ireland guys,
My Girlfriend owns a Mini Pajero 660cc Turbo Auto and while I think it is a really good little jeep it is really bad on Motorways and stuff. It would be great as a town car but we live in the country and it's a nightmare for long driving! We only get around 20mpg! (15 litres per 100km, or 6.6km per litre) Really not economical at all! I see on here that a lot of you have changed the 660cc to the 1100cc from the Junior, well if I was to just change the back and front Differentials would that help bring the revs down a bit, and make it better for the long distance driving?
There are only about 10 Mini Pajeros in Ireland but loads of Juniors around. So parts are hard to get and it's taken me 2 years to find tyres for it cause you can't get 175/80 R15's in Ireland, or Europe! But now I'm gona try put FTO 16inch alloys on with 215/70 R16's. I hope they fit ok will minimal rubbing!
One more question: What is the offset of the original Mini Pajero alloys?
Cheers,
Bob
