new guy Ryan
Hi guys, Ive Been reading this site for years, and finally got my hands on a patrol - even though others here weren't keen on it because it doesn't have the common rail motor, Took it to Graham to have it checked out, he passed it, Got the price down a little and its now our family getaway. Had the bubbly dash done last week and it looks like it came out of the factory.
Now we cant wait for some trips which will give us an excuse to get dirty.
