    Looking for advice

    Hi,

    My son is considering getting an early 2000's GU Patrol as his first car. I'll admit to knowing very little about Patrols but have seen plenty doing well on tough tracks. I'll start with a couple of basic questions -

    Petrol or Diesel - I personally prefer Diesels but both are an option. If diesel 4.2 or 3.0?

    what are the known common problems to look out for.
    Have heard of dash cracking, Steering wobbles, problems with 3.0 diesel,

    Were any common problems fixed from series 1 to 4?

    Roughly how many K's before engine starts to have problems.

    I know some of these things will vary based on how well the vehicle was maintained. Looking for rough idea only.

    Cheers
