...and yes.
Seriously though, check the stickied thread at the top which lists parts we've actually bought/used, and you can see what's available that we've needed so far...
But this is a give and take - you need to give us your location and more specifics if you want our help. Which we'll gladly give you! 
BTW, welcome!

recopy of what I sent via RE to your email:
...Take some time to read back through the posts that are there already. There are months worth of posts asking the same thing. Scroll to the bottom and pull down the "show" list, and say "from all dates". Regarding cold starts, as long as the glowplug system is up to scratch it should be good to go. And new glowplugs can be had and installed cheaply if needed. When you start it, here's what happens: you should hear a click when you turn the key forward (before you crank it over), and then within 2-5 seconds you should hear another click meaning the glowplugs have cycled. Then its okay to start. It'll be bumpy for a few seconds and then should smooth out. In extreme cold the bumpiness last longer, but does smooth out... I can't give that much advice sight unseen - I can tell you that I've put 40k kms on mine since last August and have been very happy with it. How many clicks on the one you're looking at? Phil

I have been really happy with mine. It is a great people mover and it pulls my tent trailer no problem.

Look at my last few threads about what to look for both good/bad in a Pajero.

We love ours. Still a few things to iron out, but overall a great, reliable SUV.
