If you see the movie Children of Men there is a chase scene using a Gen 1 Montero / Pajero as the pursuit vehicle! I kid you not.

Ok the chase involves it rolling down a hill, not running and then crashing because they could not turn the wheel fast enough without power steering.. but it was a Montero used in a chase scene and it shos how well a Gen 1 will roll down a long steep hill without the engine running.

To be fair it had its ignition wires pulled by the good guy. The movie is bit unrealistice because it implies that before the ignition wires were pulled the Montero was running. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

I posted this in the other movie thread. Don't you love how he pulls the wires out from the wrong side of the engine bay? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

You can't tell me that wasn't a weird movie. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" /> (I want that dude Sid's truck)

Back on topic.. Yeah I'd say it's a Montero thing.. No one else would understand. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" />

Hey, I just DL'd, I mean RENTED that. I'll have to watch for it.

Yeah I saw it in my "personal movie theater" myself before christmas. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I gotcha, man...i added the <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> at the end of my post before i left....just so everyone knows, the emoticon at next to the "-J" at the end of all my post tells what mood im in. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> means im joking. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/angry.gif" alt="" /> means im pissed, and <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> is the one i use the most, which basically just means....kewl.


Us isuzu guys are just like mitsu guys when it comes to seeing our trucks published in magazines and stuff....

Just search +petersens +isuzu in the Isuzu forum and you'll see what i mean.

Oh, and the isuzu forum has a pretty long "Movie/TV isuzu spottings" thread too.

You mean the error of saying "Monteros" and "flex" in the same sentence? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/ignore.gif" alt="" />

FWIW, I love the Amigo (don't see many up here), but I don't think it looks like a Monty - its based off the Rodeo is it not, which to me looks like where Mitsu got the idea for the Sport/Challenger. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cyclops.gif" alt="" /> Hmmm...

Oh please ... you know it's the other way around ... Mitsubishi copied everything Isuzu did. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/nana.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/butwiggle.gif" alt="" />

Actually ... the Rodeo is a lengthened Amigo if anything. The Amigo came out in 89. The Rodeo in either 90 or 91.
