Whilst parked up at garage some little oik snapped off the electric aerial level with wing.The aerial never used to fully descend,always stayed about 15cm out.After having looked at replacements on e-bay at varying prices including stick type am not sure which type to choose.Is there much hassle...

I was called out to look at a lighting problem for a client over here in France and came across a neat little gizmo.No wires connected to 2 switches(working as a normal 2 way system with both operating the same light) just a little electronic sender.In the light fitting there is a receiver.In...

Forgot to say but cost of a new Carte Grises is rated by the HP or KW of the engine (CV on the French Carte Grises,my Patrol is 11CV):thumbs

Not sure how this all works,a friend of mine just bought a French registered car(still on French plates and Carte Grises not modified to new English garage owner).The old owner had already filled in the necessary French papers for change of ownership and that all sorted out ok. I know that you...

Welcome from SW France,sorry to hear of the damage by the lowlife.

If they're anything like the ones here in France(seem to be a standard style across modern double glazing) then you can get replacement barrels and keys from most DIY shops.The only difference I've found is the depth of the barrels.On the ones I've changed they are fixed with one screw through...

Bad news on your final warning at work,hate the political correctness of our modern society,good luck:confused::thumbs

Hello and welcome from the Gironde:thumb2

Bonjour and welcome from Gironde,SW France.I had problems with my Trol dash with the speedo mainly then the odometer,was lucky enough to source one on Leboncoin here in France(mine is a French car) but you can find them on e-bay uk too.

Hello and welcome

Hello and welcome from a fellow Trol owner in SW France.I've got a 2.8TD chassis longue.My ex kept the 4.2! If you look on Leboncoin in France under Nissan Patrol GR there was a 4.2 for sale today.They are more expensive(all cars) here in France so a UK one might be a cheaper option although the...

Could you not get it overhauled or find a 2nd hand replacement on e-bay or such like?Shame to get rid a car that's otherwise sound.

Enjoy,will raise a glass from SW France:thumbs

Do any of you guys know if you can get templates or kits for ally chequerplate panels for a lwb Patrol GR Y60 similar to the ones you can get for Landrovers?:thumbs

Don't know if it's the same rad as a 2.8 but there was one for sale here in France for 50 euros,seen others a bit dearer.

Looks like you thought of everything,not just electrical gaine but water pipes and waste,you'll be able to plumb in a shower as well as sink!:clap

Well said,I enjoy following them especially ones involving Trolls!As for not being allowed to mod too much in France Jonela there's a few guys down this way that I've met who have and are driving legally.If you look on Le Boncoin(certainly under Patrol GR) you'll find plenty for sale etc with...

Thanks for the feedback,sadly nowadays over here Rick the gendarmes will waste 3 hours writing a crime report then do sweet FA about it,they're much happier setting up checkpoints for speeding(only allowed 1 kmph over speed limit here so be aware all those embarking on the trip over to Jonelas)...
