Default 2001 Montero Limited - ready for rebuild

This 2001 Montero Limited was optioned with a Preferred Equipment package, which consists of automatic climate control with rear air-conditioner/ heater. Front intercooler and transmission cooler. Safety items of particular note are privacy glass, alarm/immobilizer system with panic mode and remote, dual-front and front-side airbags, and four-wheel vented-disc brakes with multimode ABS--one of the few in the industry in 2001 that identifies when you're on a loose surface and adjusts accordingly.

For comfort and convenience, this Limited model includes a seven-speaker 175-watt Kenwood audio system (aftermarket), power-operated windows/locks/mirrors/moonroof, leather front- and second-row seats, wood/leather steering wheel, and heated front seats and side mirrors. In terms of hard-core off-road essentials, ours was outfitted with the outstanding, true 4x4 system, skidplates, a complete, removable tool kit fitted to the swing-out rear "barn door," a locked and covered full-size spare wheel, high end foglights and massive tow hooks front and rear.

This vehicle has been WELL cared for and maintained with all systems and components functioning. Garaged for nearly 15 years of the 20+ ownership. Paint is in exceptional condition, Interior is in excellent condition. One owner.

If you are a Mitsubishi Montero enthusiast this vehicle would be a great base to work from but would require an engine refresh and transmission rebuild.

Why are we selling it? We no longer need a 7 passenger vehicle and were seeking a smaller more economic vehicle.

It is in remarkably good condition for 300k Mike's. You've done good job with the upkeep.

Thanks Hunter. It certainly has alot more life for the right person who can update the transmission and refresh the engine. Unfortunately I'm not in a position to do that.
