New owner of an oldie
Hi All,
Just moved to Australia and needed a used car at a good price until we have settled and have a bigger budget.
Our sensible search was a sedan, but, being outdoor people, both my wife and I have been itching for a 4x4. On our searches I stumbled across a '94 4.2l diesel DX Patrol. Now I have no knowledge of the Patrol range, always thought I would get a land cruiser one day (oops did i say that out loud :-) ), but when I met my Patrol it was love at first sight!
Had her checked out by a trusted mechanic and he's impressed, so we should be getting her tomorrow afternoon. I know it's a bit of a risky buy, mileage and age etc... but here we go
Anyway see ya later...
