:gday: Hi just joined today.
I have owned my Nissan Patrol GQ 1991 for 10 years and love the old girl. She is a true work horse because we have horses so in the early years she pulled around the float but now that our daughter doesn't ride any more she just does the hard slog - carry hay, feed, tools etc. With a little nursing here and there she does us proud. Sadly like all old workhorses she does suffer from neglect at time. Right now she is having to put up with a gearbox fix me up. It's auto and the second and third gears were slipping and the overdrive would come and go off as it pleased! Hoping that it's not too big a job! But have been quoted $2,800 for the rings etc as the mechanic is confident the gears themselves are okay. A week's holiday and then the old girl should be back on the road YAY. :clapping: :clapping:
