Hi all just like to introduce myself.. Up until Sunday had a 2001patrol had it from 2 years old and loved her!!! Then she blew her lid/head!! towing my daughter to a horse show !!!!! Gutted !!! I need a 4x4 truck for a bit of towing and lots of shooting(part of my job)and I've managed to px the patrol for a 05 terrano and just wondered what to expect?? Off road ability/reliability/running costs/anything to get done etc any views/input will be greatly received thanks rob

welcome matey.
the terrano is a great motor but most will argue the patrol is better

.
the 05 plate is a lot more expencive on road tax than the earlier models and they do about 28 to a gallon.
As for off road capabilities they are very underestimated. but they are very capable
