The arrival of my Patrol - still wrapped up unpacked and washed

Welcome as a Patrol owner!

Early Christmas prezzie! All wrapped up & all...

Nice man very jelous of a brand new 4.2.......

Very very nice Arnold. I'm sure you will enjoy it.

Very, very, very nice.

Very nice.

What size tyres did it come with?

Welkom welkom en geluk met jou patrol

thanks everybody! yes, so far I am very happy with it. After couple of weeks I will post a new thread and try to compare it with previous vehicles I had.

a Christmas present that couldn't wait until December to be unwrapped ;)

tires are 235/80 16 109S Bridgestone Dueler H/T 689; I have no clue why Nissan just equips the Patrol with the everywhere available 235/85 16 tires?! anyway... if necessary I will change them to nice 235/85 16 A/Ts.

Congratulations! Very nice looking Patrol... Now we need pictures of it climbing over dunes and through mud pits.
