Taken the plunge!

After many long years of Land Rover ownership, I have finally joined the "dark side" and bought a 2005 Nissan Patrol 3.0d SVE!

Off to do some serious reading now on oil catch cans, snorkel fitment, etc

Welcome dude!!!!

Welcome bud!

Trol owner myself, although I'm in the middle of selling my Y61 3.0 and getting an older Y60 4.2

My 3.0 has been an awesome, capable and reliable steed during the 4 years I've had her though, you won't be disappointed

Check out my project thread for ideas although you might need to pay your membership (?)

Welcome along mate.

I was a Land Rover owner too, made the switch and I have to say, I'm loving it!

There's plenty of information on here and as Davey say's, the Aussie forums...

Enjoy.
