    Newbie from the UK

    Hi all, just about to start my new life as a patrol owner, looked for ages and finaly found a y61 td42 on 1998 plate. (A very very rare truck in the UK!) Its had turbo and intercooler added. Off to do the deal on monday, anything I should look out for? Its done 108k in miles, mostly road work.

    Welcome to the forum mate. What a score at such low km's!!!

    Give it a good service mate, maybe check the tappets, change all filters, oils, check for any leaks and you should be fine with those km's mate.

    G'day mate.

    Welcome to the forum and glad to have you onboard.

    You must look out for the fun, enjoyment and prestige of owning a 'troll.' Is it white? Watch your wallet. Modifications are addictive. hahahaha

    You can post pics of your new truck on this forum via Member's Ride section. Most of us use Photobucket and put up pics 640 x 480. This size fits on the page nicely.

    Take care out there.
