Hi all,today my new pajero was delivered, only been waiting 5 weeks since I bought it,I bought it in Sydney and had to get it transported up to where we live,about 3000 kms. I had a excelorator ring hand control and a slider transfer board fitted,at great expense,I went with the excelorator ring because I find the standard push pull or the twist hand controls very tiring, we drive long distances up here our nearest town is 500 kms away. I bought a 2006 Mitsubishi pajero as the car I had pre injury was a manual Mitsubishi triton and it was just getting to hard and expensive to get it converted. So now I'm independent again,YAY, .
we can now get back into our camping trips and just get away when we feel like it,no more relying on taxis. Can't wait till tomorrow so I can really take her for a good test drive. I will keep you all posted on the trips we do

I'll be interested to hear how you like the accelerator ring. Transfer board sounds like a great thing to have also.
