2009 Nissan Patrol GU 3.0
It is extraordinarily difficult to find one of these that hasn't been molested by someone. It took me nearly 18 months of searching to find this one from an old guy who'd used it to tow his sons dirtbikes around.
Extremely regrettably my Patrol is for sale. I picked this vehicle up in 2018 and have driven it approx 60,000km including 7 trips to JB, one to Hat Head, one to Coffs Harbour and 4 trips to Greencape. Almost all of the major drives i've done in this car have been documented in some form on FV. I've never towed with it nor done any signifant offroad work. It's never been on a beach except for once when i took a wrong turn in the dark, instantly U turned and headed back to ledge I was after.
I thought I wanted a 4wd for off-roading and fishing and in the end, i've never taken it anywhere I can't take a VZ commodore wagon, which is what i've ended up buying.
This is a 2009 common rail GU y61. This is the model after the model after the one with the engine that exploded, after changing to the common rails, they seem to have fixed the issue.
I had the clutch replaced at 160k kms with a single fly wheel by a specialist in Geelong.
I've had the manifold bolts replaced cos they were making noise.
Other than that, regular serviced, absolutely not molested at home and the only real dirt roads it's driven down are the road to Greencapes SWC and Pulpit, and the navy road down to the tubes at JB.
Roof Racks
Driving Lights
Chrome bullbar
Extended range fuel tank.
Seats 6 and 7 available but not installed.
198,000kms
One corner of the bull bar is pushed in from where CarlG cleaned up skippies big brother on the Hume on our last JB trip. Other than that no real damage outside of the normal things in line with going camping / fishing almost every weekend for 2 years.
Rego Until July 7 (I think, i'l check)
Only has 1 key.
$20,000
I'm not really a car guy so if i've forgotten something critical i'm sure someone can point out whatever it is and I can make an inclusion.
This is an extremely regrettable sale however hard times mean we need to make hard decisions.
I have an extreme dislike for time wasting morons, so it's worth it to me to sell it to someone I know or someone who knows someone on here. I'll throw in my Saltiga 5500h expedition spooled with 50lb Tasline if sold at asking to a fishvic member or friend of a member before the end of next week, may 23rd. This is the finest spinning reel ever made, according to Alan Hawk.

Re: 2009 Nissan Patrol GU 3.0
That's a beast at a really good price. I've always wanted a black or silver one of these. They always come up when you aren't looking..
Good luck with the sale Dougie

Re: 2009 Nissan Patrol GU 3.0
You're making the right and sensible decsion there
We all love our belongings (reason why we bought them in the first place) but like you said- hard time required hard decision.
Good luck with the sale DougieK

Re: 2009 Nissan Patrol GU 3.0
Thanks for the bump, I forgot this was on here. Still for sale. People buying patrols seem to be entirely time wasting expetitives.
edit - Changed price to reflect what I've dropped it to on carsales.
