Hi, potentially new patrol owner soon!!

Welcome aboard mate and good luck with the search

G'day mate welcome to the forum.

Thanks everyone for the welcome, not sure at this stage which way to go, either go to a car auction and try n get something better cheaper, or wait until the right one comes along at the right price, or there is one 04 ZD30 auto that is pretty much set up with about 250 tho k's on it with nads, lift, needle valves ect ect pretty much everything except a winch for mid 18k, a lot of money but then given the amount of mods and money spent already??? it could be ok, so a lot to weigh up and don't mind getting in and doing some mods myself, so maybe a stock patrol and slowly when the finance minister of fun and money allows do it myself? Any thoughts on current options?

G'day mate welcome to the forum

Welcome and good luck. Just converted to a patrol myself and love it.

Depends on your budget. Plenty of Patrols on Pickles auctions web site. Nice one for 30g fixed price with 40thou on it in Melbourne. Not auto though. I was going to go the auction route myself but found what I wanted in Adelaide. Used car market is tough at the moment you could end up with a bargain. Aim high, bargain hard and be prepared to walk away if they wont meet your price. Always surprises me how salesmen can find an extra few thou on a trade.

Welcome to the forum mate, lots of useful information on here aswell as a wealth of knowledge from it's members.

Good luck with the search mate.
