Sorry , me again, From experience the main dealers are beginning to supply spares quite readily for these motors. I have a contact in the trade who tells me that a lot of the performance cars have often been used for street racing. Regarding grey imports, apparently all the domestic Pajero/Shoguns i.e. jap spec not UK spec have been recalled in Japan to have transmission oil cooler pipes replaced as they have had intances of pipes bursting when stressed. As these vehicles are likely to be more stressed over in the UK than "at home" this is a real concern. This does not affect UK spec models and consequently UK dealers won't do it F.O.C. Neither, I suspect, will the importer!
