Equipment
Dual mirrors, rear-mounted spare, 4-wheel drive, bench seat.
Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
Paint looks good with some overspray on the door hinges. Panel gaps are a little uneven. Nissan emblems on the sides are losing plating. Most of the engine bay was sprayed crudely with bed liner. The underbody was undercoated on the outer frame rails, but there is surface rust in the middle. The interior also looks to have been crudely sprayed over dust and dirt. Seats look new. A rarely seen short wheelbase Nissan Patrol and represented with a body-on restoration, but it only takes a second to see how cheaply it was done.
Market commentary
Suddenly all those expensive Toyota FJ40s we see at collector car auctions make even less sense. Here is essentially the same thing but a whole lot rarer and with a Nissan badge bought for about half of what the equivalent Toyota in this condition would bring. It's not the outdoorsman's icon that the FJ is, but the Nissan Patrol looks to be a solid value if you can find one. Most of them seem to be trundling militias around the Middle East.
