Hi guys. I'm looking for a diesel suv around 7mil. The main option I have is montero sports (2008-2016 model). I know it's not comfortable as other suv's. But considering the current vehicle we have(a van), it will be more comfortable for me. :P

My main concern is, it's reliability. I have heard some issues with common rail engines. Are those issues also applicable for this model?
Is montero sports is a good choice for 7mil?
What do you guys think? :)

    We've been using one since 2012.. no issue what so ever. Common rail is the new standard of diesel engines. Even most of the heavy vehicles are equipped with common rail engines due to their efficiency. If reliability is you concern, I don't think you have anything to worry about. But make sure owner has property taken care of the vehicle. Mainly regular servicing and using only super diesel. Because common rail engines are prone to sulphur deposits from low grade diesel. If that happens costly engines cleaning is required

    Dont risk your life on a montero sport. worst SUV ever. all plastic and wind resistance sucks even at 100kmph on the expressway. (2011-2012 model) 2007 is a lot better.
