Old style Nisaan Patrol is a legend! That old box is a beast! That old box is a beauty that no words can describe!

this guy must be a Land Rover dealer cause he talks it up a lot. Land Rovers are great parked in your drive way.

This bloke is clueless. Its a diesel engine and he's focusing on BHP. Mate its all about the torque! Plus theres a 3.0 and 4.2 option. Both turbo charged too. What a plonker!

I had one of these with the 3.0 turbo diesel. It was an animal and pissed all over my father's Landcruser every time we had to tow a trailer. An excellent work horse and still nothing out there to match it for traction or pulling power and iv drivin them all.

best all terrain car overall

Have had one of these 2.8 TD Patrols since new in 1998. Have traveled a half million kilometres… mostly on Australian outback roads and tracks, usually towing. Have had a few issues with the very hardworking motor, but mainly due to the routine maintenance that my car has never received. Yes the motor is quite anaemic, but it has always had just enough power to get the job done, and has always got us home. Just gave the old girl a 24th birthday in the workshop, and she feels like new. Many years left in her yet. My previous car was a SWB MQ Patrol that lasted over 20 years of similar hard abuse.

How dear you say the boxy patrol were awful there are beasts I own one the Nissan patrol 260 2.8TD 1992 my grandad baught her brand new and that jeep has been through hell and back and it still runs like new never been accelerated hard she’s been took care of good and she all stock still has the same turbo so don’t ever say the boxy patrol are awful because there not.

Patrols any generation are the king of kings

For some reason, the Nissan Patrol never sold here in the USA. If it were sold here, I would've bought one, preferably with a turbo diesel engine.

my husband had a nissan patrol on a farm we bought it with 31000 miles on the clock when we sold it had 277000 miles most of it life was towing it was ugly by today standards but a brute never let us down it went on for another four years with person we sold it too he got to nearly 400000 when he sold it . it far better than poxy landrovers made here in uk don;t know why people go for discovery and range rovers or 110

There were also 4.5 and 4.8 liter I6 petrol options, which could 0-60 much faster than the base 2.8L diesel you used in the video.

The old Nissan Patrol was not "JUST AWFUL" by any standards.

he just called a GQ boxy and awful WHAT!

Land rover is toys in front of Nissan patrol. Nissan patrol is the best off road suv

Nissan Patrols are the best..

so a journalist with obviously no interest in offroading, takes a patrol with the worst engine of the 5 (iirc) available for a tarmac road test and then says is makes a poor luxury car...... go figure.

Horses for courses. I have a 2006 expedition prepared 3.0Di Patrol. I have taken it to Morocco, Western Sahara and Turkey on a number of occasions over 11 years. You can adapt it for your needs. Most of the gear on mine is Australian. Old Man Emu raised suspension greatly reduces the body roll without compromising comfort while increasing ground clearance. Heavy duty basic engineering - not electronic gizmos is what you want in remote areas. Look at any of the car reliability surveys and sadly you will find that Land Rover and Jeep always near the bottom. Beautiful leather interiors and expensive HiFis don't count for much if you are stuck in the desert 200miles from help. I've used it as UK everyday transport - and don't have to worry about supermarket car park door dings or ruining 21" alloys on British road potholes. It has depreciated less in 11 years than a new SUV in the first 2 years. I don't feel exhausted at the end of 500 miles a day across Europe en route to somewhere interesting. "Chacun a son gout" as the French say.

Why? Ask the Australian they know? And the whole world knows. RELIABILITY!

I'm not sure if this is an actual review from 1999, but I drive one and they say they can go up to a million kilometers and above if cared for properly.

Its probably still running around with 400k on it

Also came out as 4.5l petrol too

Why wasn’t the 4.2 litre version of the Patrol sold in the UK?

Gq y60 is a classic legend

what total crap these people talk ,really amazing

Oh this is what my car looks before 19 year's

Beautiful Looking Car 💓Butch Manly Handsome, It Look Better Than Land Cruiser even Range Rover dare to say.

Il est solide et beau

Liked the predecessor more!

Here in Dubai we have the 4.8 inline six 280 Bhp and 360 trq

wow my dad has 2010 nissan patrol

I can't get over how clueless this guy is. The TD42T and TB45 engines are awesome and have more than enough poke to get the truck moving. The mere fact he suggests two of the worst vehicles in terms of reliability (Jeep and Discovery) as preferable options shows he's never taken a vehicle properly offroad. Have a look to the right and see what these beasts can do.

The old nissan patrol y60 was much lighter and sturdy than the mew model y61.

بطل الدروب من يوم يومه

Why is because it's the Cherokee is a unibody piece of garbage and the Land Rover is a BMW piece of garbage. The 2.8 TDI is an amazing engine with tons of torque and there's very little that's more prepared for offroad stock than the Patrol.

Can I get one here in the US???? Jeep Cherokee or Nissan.... I know the Cherokee - I'll take the Nissan any day!!!

مشاءالله

My grandma has one!!!

Precios

That's not a knife. . . This is a knife

Wich engine td42 !

Costo

Proves this clown has no idea. He's calling the mighty GQ rubbish. Obviously has no idea what a real 4x4 is all about. Why on earth would you buy a patrol over a Jeep Cherokee or land rover he said. Must be the joke of the century. This guy is reviewing probably strongest, toughest 4x4 ever made. I guess its because in England its impossible to make use of this vehicles full potential and that a cheroke or landrover wld be a better vehicle for overtaking on the way to tesco or doing the school run. Now if your talking about doing a 5000km trip into the outback or doing a 4x4 extreme challenge or a desert dune race in Dubai with a turbo charged 4.8 then this vehicle is unmatched. The landcruiser may match it as a tourer but nothing comes close in terms of drivetrain strength or the horsepower capabilities of the legendary 4.8.

100 times better more stable than the Range Rover Not the Land Rover discovery

last statement was so foolish. why you buy - still driving it at top speed in 2024. if you have this model. guys please try using liqui moly atf additive. you will thank me.

Another Biased review ....

I had a y61 3,0 and it was the WORST car I've ever driven. Stay away from this CRAP
