    1999 GU 4.2TD Owned from new with 566635 kms still going strong (touchwood)

    Hi all, greetings from NoR in Perth. I am the original owner from new.
    Anyone else owned there patrol from new? getting into the 22nd year of ownership.

    Should have joined years and years ago but I'm here now and better late than never. Looking forward to see how this pans out.

    Remember if your upside down but facing the right way it isn't all bad news.

    Cheers
    MickeyB

    G'day and welcome,

    Yep, Yep!, we bought ours in May - 2004, 4.8L petrol, because my wife didn't like the smell of diesel when we took the diesel for a test drive. But we love it and its been good for us.

    Not from new, but the longest that I've own any car in the last 30 odd years. All 7 years.
    Currently my tb45 with all adjustments with Speedo sitting around the 530k mark being on gas for the last 10 years and chucking along nicely with 400 to 700 km per week
