Hi all, looking for a new 4B and after 20 years and 3 Hilux's, it may be time for a change. I have lots of questions so I hope you can answer some of them and maybe convert me to a world of N.,NNN..Niss iss iss.
I sure i'll be able to say it one day.

So I'll start here and tell you the current rig is a 93 Hilux with all the fruit. Lift, muddies, winch, lr tank, draws, air lockers + a swag more.
I'm after a wagon that I can set up for touring and punnish as i do with the Lux. This means from factory it must have a solid front [no IFS bs] manual, diesel, coils, and some luxo, creature comforts.

Q's

What year was the CRD introduced ?
What year was the dash and body changed ?
What is the factory tyre size ?

At the moment I'm leaning towards a ST-L, 05, 3.0l, manual, metalic paint, grey leather interior.

Hi, and please tell me more.

Scott

Welcome to the forum mate, once you get the Patrol you'll never look back...100%!!!

You might have to post up any questions in another category mate as a lot of peopl don't read the introductions section.

Hope we can convert you to the dark side mate..lol
