I made a mistake. The Jeep Cherokee is called the "XJ" not the "SJ." You're right about the resemblance between the XJ and the second generation Pajero. The proportions and the fender flares being major design elements are quite similar. They both have that skinny rear door with the skinny roll down window.
Getting into that rear seat through that skinny door is similar to mounting a horse - you have to have a plan on how to do it in order to accomplish it gracefully or even successfully. It was shocking to see that it had a straight 6 engine as well as a solid front axle. The most shocking was a rear tire mounted inside the vehicle against the driver's side window. That's just plain goofy! OTOH, if you want to get a totally non-shocking, boring, vehicle you can always get a Toyota Camry.
