It's probably a custom font, but it is very close to the Pajero UK font, Ethnocentric.

The A's are identical, just reversed. The S is identical, but the P's and R's are different, which is where the custom bit comes into it. Typographers will start with a base font and edit letters to make a new font set - probably as has been done here  Wink

They've also shortened the cross bar of the A, opened up the spacing some, taken the sharp bits off the E, put a break in the O - and probably loads more besides.

Have a look om www.flamingtext.com and you'll fnd Ethnocentric and maybe even this variation of it  Wink
