spanish mitsubishi pajero...?
Not sure if many people know it, but "Pajero" actually means ****** or tosser in spanish. So presumably they have a diferent name in spain and a lot of other countries including america. Does anyone know what they call them?
Also, i think MR2 is called something diferent in france because it would sound a bit like "merde"! Anyone know what thats called there too?

They sell the old boxy shape Shoguns under the brand of "Galloper",
But I think it's just branded as that because some other manfacturerbought the tooling and licence to make it. Can't remember the manufacturer. But I think its Hyundai or something similar, that begins with "H"
Not related to the topic really, but when I first saw one, it made me think WTF

As Ali B says, they're mostly branded as Galloper but there are numerous UK originated vehicles that are Pajeros which causes a few mutterings amongst the Spanish as appropriately they are usually still on UK plates without MOTs etc.
