$3,410

The 1999 Nissan Patrol range of configurations is currently priced from $3,410.

Carsguide Contributing Journalist David Morley had this to say at the time: It can be if you buy the right one. We’d be very leery of any RD28 or ZD30-powered example, especially if it has covered a lot of kilometres (since many of them are likely to have been in the bush). The 4.2 diesel and six-cylinder petrol versions, though, seem to offer a better package, especially now that the earliest GU Patrols are nearing a quarter-of-a-century on the road. But even the best GU Patrol will not be able to match a modern SUV for comfort, driving dynamics, safety and fuel economy. But if you want to go properly off-road, then a GU Patrol trumps any SUV or Crossover any day.

Nissan Patrol 1999: Cracked head?

The Patrol six is known to crack heads and blow head gaskets when running on gas because of the higher temperature when on LPG, but it’s rare for it to happen on petrol. Still, I would be running a leak test to determine if there is a problem with the head or head gasket.
