Mitsubishi Pajero

I’ve owned my Pajero for two years and it was the best decision; they are very much underrated and it has never let me down. A unique mod is that I installed the rear drawers on to gas struts, to access underfloor storage where my third-row seats used to sit. It’s amazing how much room would be wasted if I didn't have access to this space.

If you want to see how these rear drawers work, you can check it out on my YouTube or Instagram: @BIA4X4. I recently got back from Moreton Island and it was amazing to be able to explore the island, especially the north and western side. - Bia Neves Mcalister
