The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

The 747
I had to add up rough costs when I reinsured the car a couple of years ago. Super scary!
Could have had a brand new 4x4 or a quarter of my house paid off... lol even worse when you think about it like that.

Amen to that brother! Although I have kept every receipt for my Patrol. I dare not count them up. Nice rig but. I reckon its almost worth it. I'd rather spent 50k on that than a new LUX or similar.
