Hi all,

I am a brand new Nissan Patrol owner from Zimbabwe, Southern Africa, having taken delivery of my first and only one this very morning! Am now looking for an owners manual & Haynes workshop manual so in my search came across this site.

It's a 1993 model - a TD42 - but seems solid and in good condition for its age. I bought it to pull a horsebox which when fully loaded can weigh around 3.5 tonnes - we have some steep hills near us so I needed something pretty powerful. Reckon I've found it!

Will post a photo as soon as.

Cheers, Sam (that's the female version :))

Sorry if this is a bit blonde, but how do I post a photo? Tried the Insert Image option, but it asks for a URL ...

Cheers again, Sam

g'day Sam (the female version), welcome aboard the forum. It won't take long to rack up 25 posts, then you'll have access to the manuals but I'm not sure if there's an Owners manual up yet........ someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

Yay - it worked! BTW, we call this car the "GTC" which stands for "Glorified Tin Can". No offense!

Hi and welcome to Nissans Nut House Sam. I agree, GTC suits that model. LOL! Now a MK is real steel. PML! That is one different Wildlife Bar.
