One of the best cars I've owned
Having owned at least 20 cars in my time, the Montero Sport is hands down one of my favorites. It has it all in terms of reliability, versatility, dependability, and value, and it looks pretty decent to boot. Having just turned 140,000 miles, I can honestly say nothing has gone wrong with the car, it still gets around 19 MPG combined, and I've only done the recommended maintenance. The interior is simple yet durable, and stands up to the daily abuse my two young kids submit to it. If I could find another Montero with fewer miles, I would purchase another one without hesitation and own two.
2002 Montero sport
This has been a great SUV for my family. Very reliable and fun to drive. I wish they would bring back the design.

Glad I made this choice!!
Lovin' the Sport. I've heard all of the bad reviews about the lack of power and the sluggish transmission...hey, if you're looking for a speedster, stop looking for SUVs. There is ample power, and I feel that the steering is sharp. I've been on some long hauls already with it...4000 miles so far, and I still get enjoyment out of the winding roads.
Looks good...Drives well.
I did a lot of research before buying this car. Turns out it's one of the best decisions i've made. The car handles really well. I was suprised by how well the handling felt when i put it in 4WD in the snow. Plus, it look great on the outside. At times, i feel the pick up could be better (especially when merging onto the highway) but then again, you can't expect any SUV to have the pick up of a sports car. Overall, great car. Would recommend to all my friends.
underpowered
This car has been overly reliable but utterly boring, we've had this car since new and it's rarely had any issues which has been great, but I regret not getting the 3.5 liter as this has no power when you put people in the car, it's designed for people under 5'10 since proper posture for anyone taller requires you to hunch over to see out the windows, you also need to squeeze into the doors, there's not enough cup holders, no ample storage. I know these are popular for off-road use and that's the only thing they'd be good for, it's uncomfortable and shouldn't be allowed to transport more than three small adults.
