Default Another newbie to ask all the same questions

Hi all
As per the thread title I am another newcomer and I will be asking questions that have been asked before so no mickey taking please .
I have recently purchased a patrol 2004 y61 which I'm very pleased with, I have owned a few nissans in the past but this is my first patrol. I will be looking for expert advice from you guys regarding my new purchase as it does have a few niggles.
That's it for now, until the questions start
Thanks all
Neil

Welcome, as you can see, many of the vehicle owners on this site are still trying to master their parking skills.
