Default Decided I need a Patrol in my life!

Hi All,

I've decided I need to buy a Patrol so thought joining the forum would help me decide on the best one to get and to learn a little about the different models / years.

Looking forward to picking your collective brains.

Cheers,

SF

Many thanks for the welcome, I'm looking for something that in the short term will be a daily driver but as soon as I buy something to commute in it will be relegated to a weekend vehicle for fishing and other outdoor pursuits.

Hoping to spend up to £3,500 ish, I don't really know enough yet to pick an exact model so was wondering if anyone know where I can find a comprehensive write up on the variations. Having said that my limited knowledge so far is leading me towards an early 90's coil sprung version in 4.2 guise although it appears the 3.0TD have a big following to

I'll put something in the right section.

Cheers,

SF
