* window tint
* winch
* DP Chip & 3" exhaust
* wheels & bigger tyres
* snorkel
* storage drawers & fridge pull out system (I want the 92ltr Primus dual zone fridge/freezer)

He'll be fine stock standard for awhile - just couldn't believe all the crappy looked after/maintained Patrols out there for sale at ridiculously outrageous prices !!

Soooo went alittle newer & alittle above my planned budget LOL


Oh and found my dark grey one!! Just wasn't prepared to pay $36k for the flipping thing when white was soooo much cheaper

White looks tough once the black accessories start rolling on.

[TPC]

Looks good and should be theft proof with the NATS anti theft system.
White is the best colour too, does not show the scratches as bad. (assuming you will be going bush bashing)

[happygu]

Mine used to look like that .... good find by the looks of it.

[2TROLLFAM]

I'm pretty happy with it !! 157020klms - was a fleet car based in Emerald & serviced every 20k

And yes, no doubt he'll cop collateral scratches ;)

Serviced every 20k? That's too long between services! Unless a typo I thought nissan said 10k and 7500kmin harsh conditions unless the common rail changed. Anyway enjoy now next time you're in the glasshouse you can follow us all without thinking your car will let you down and we can help build your confidence to become a better offroader enjoy

[Bloodyaussie]

Well done mate.... glad it's all working out after the scum of life pass into your life.

GPS tracker and a good alarm....... then all the other goodies later!!

That is no excuse Sharen, YOU NEED TO MAKE TIME. I bet you guys are worse than kids at Christmas, only so many sleeps to go.

I am glad it has all seemed to have worked out for you, especially with all the crap that's happened recently.

Enjoy the new machine

Mark

[2TROLLFAM]

Yes I am worse than the kids - but with 1/2 our staff at the EKKA it's impossible to leave the dealership ATM so I just gotta wait.

Make sure you check the dash for the dreaded pimples and if you find any get it replaced by Nissan.
Being a 2008 the dashpad is still covered by Nissan warranty until it turns 6.

First on the list

- Dual Battery system & Anderson plug
- update stereo so I can use my Bluetooth for music & phone

Then possibly look at the lift - see how far the $$ I have left will last

If your Patrol sits ok ATM leave it as its the last mod you should do anyway,
I've just fitted a 50 amp Anderson for the camper and for my engel. Rear power outlets from Bainbridge
are handy as per pic, and cover plate neatens rear area if seats are removed

Depends on what you want to use your patrol for. Lifting mine was the first thing I did as I needed more clearance. Then came bigger tyres.

You'll also fit when your a tad over 6' 2" as well, at least in a GQ anyway

[Bob]

I take one of the Back Seats out and have made up a cover for the foot wells and can quite comfortably fit in a singe Mattress .
You could fit in a double Mattress if both rear seats were taken out.

LMFAO !!! I did mean in - not with

It's got a power socket in back already?? Didnt know it was there till last night - will take a pic tomorrow - hopefully it'll run my fridge when I eventually get one ???
