Montero Sports are not Montero's at all, they drive completely different since they are actually the SUV bodied Strada L200 pickup (mighty max). They are not bad at all but don't buy one expecting a montero, that's what i did and it really made me want a pickup. The Montero Sport is not as comfortable as any generation Montero I really didn't like roadtrips in that thing. If you want a newer Montero get the Gen II or III, even though Gen III's are fully independent they still drive like a Montero and have that Montero feel.
