Hi Guys, thanks for the membership!

A Patrol has always been a bucklist vehicle for me and I am now the proud owner of a 2006 Patrol 4800 GL! As long as I can remember I have always wanted to own one, and now after a long search and patience I have found the one I wanted.

Took delivery on Thursday, so will have to sit out the lockdown before going out for some fun! The driving I have done has been amazing and everything I expected and more! It is a solid real truck!

Hope to meet up with some of the Cape guys as soon as we are able to get back to outdoor recreational activities.
