1999 Nissan Patrol ST review from Australia and New Zealand
"An absolutely awesome off roader with reliability and practicality"
General comments?
This car is rocket proof. It's absolutely excellent in every regard. It is incredible off road, and for a 4wd on full live axles, it handles very well on road as well.
This car requires next to no maintenance and is extremely easy to service at home. It is so simple, and it is also very practical, but the performance could be better; although it can be forgiven with 114kw trying to move 2.3 tons.
