Sorry for the ignorance, but how do i know the model of my truck and the engine type - the vehicle is as the photo shown by my name, its a 4.2 Diesel i believe, but what model?

Hopefully the last of the stupid questions.

Thanks

The only stupid questions on here are the ones you don't ask.

You have a Y60 Patrol/Safari with a TD42 engine.
Yours is the rarer high roof model and being a Safari (in Japan they were called Safari, in Australia Patrol) it's most likely the top spec TI model with electric everything.

Not sure about electric everything - sunroof (its a big un) windows, central locking, heated rear screen, Rear passenger heater, i didnt think it was very flash, but compared to other 4x4's of a similar year very happy with the fit out

Nah, no turbo fitted, and it seems to go well enough without one, but i acn be persuaded otherwise by anyone who has fitted one.
Is this known as the GQ model?
