My backside is itching (don't ask
), so my trusty Troll, Imvubu, is on the market. VEHICLE:
Nissan Patrol 4.5E GRX Manual Transmission
YEAR OF FIRST REGISTRATION:
1999
The car was built in 1998, though.
COLOR:
Dark Metallic Green & Gold
FUEL:
Petrol
MILEAGE:
250000 km
SERVICE HISTORY:
Partial. I have all invoices of the work that was done on the car since I bought it with 215000 km on the clock. Since I have owned the car, I have spared no expense to maintain the vehicle as well as possible and to attend to little things that were not perfect.
CONDITION:
Good.
Mechanically the car is great. It has not been a hangar queen though, i.e. it has done some work off the beaten track, so there are some bush pin stripes on the paint work (nothing that wouldn't buff out, though) and the left hand front mudflap was attacked at some point in the distant past by a dog.
I would not hesitate to jump in and depart on a long trip into unknown lands...
The car has all the usual GRX refinements and everything works, including the duel tank fuel transfer system, rear diff lock, original Nissan radio receiver/tape deck, CD shuttle, electric windows, electric mirrors, electric tilt/slide sunroof, dual air conditioning, etc.
MODIFICATIONS:
1) Powerflow stainless steel exhaust system (both silencers are of the free flow type)
2) Powerbrake front disc brake and pad set
3) Ironman coil springs (approximately 2" lift)
4) TJM XGS shock absorbers and steering damper
5) Set of 5 BFG Mud Terrain KM2 tyres (285/75R16). These have still got about 60% to 70% life remaining
6) EDIT: Oops, I forgot to add that the front brake lines have also been extended to prevent tension on them under extreme rebound travel.
EXTRAS:
Montegra nudge bar. It is much more sturdy than the typical Excalibur type, but it is not a proper bull bar.
RECENT MAINTENANCE ITEMS:
1) Engine mountings replaced (both sides)
2) New clutch at 240000 km (genuine Nissan clutch friction plate, pressure plate, release bearing and pilot bearing fitted)
3) Gearbox input shaft oil seal and crankshaft rear main oil seal replaced as preventive maintenance measures when clutch was done
4) Plastic radiator tanks changed to aluminium
5) New full set of cooling system hoses (all 8 items replaced with new genuine Nissan items)
6) 250000 km service just done

PRICE:
R105000 (negotiable: I would much rather sell Imvubu to a forum member than trading her in
)If the offer is right, the following extras will be included, otherwise I will sell them separately:
1) The car also has one of Peter Connan's very sturdy skid plates
2) Set of Escape Gear seat covers
3) Trailer/dual battery wiring (KISS principal employed: it is just a solenoid system)
4) Max Ellery manual

. Daar is nie juis 'n konkrete rede daarvoor nie, maar ek het so 'n lysie in my kop van 'n paar voertuie wat ek graag op die een of ander stadium sou wou besit en ek kan hulle ongelukkig nie almal gelyk bekostig nie 
.
, dan kan ek en jy onse lorries vergelyk en dalk oorreed jy my ook om oor die draad te loer
