1992 Nissan Patrol Ti review from Australia and New Zealand
"Solid as a rock"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Have not had too many problems with the old girl.
Had to replace the front steering damper; probably from all the use.
Rear window regulator broke and the window would not stay up; had to wire it till I got back to town.
The power mirrors are very clunky whenever going over bumps,
General comments?
For a big 4wd it is really quick off the mark and can climb rocks without trying.
The fuel economy is not the best; 17-20l per 100km, but I can't fault the motor; still quiet and smooth.
The transmission is auto and is starting to get a bit clunky 1st to 2nd.
It has towed a 22ft caravan around Australia before I got it, and tows my 20 ft boat with ease.
It handles well; not as much body roll as I thought it would have.
