Nissan’s Y61 (GU) Patrol may have a reputation for bulletproof mechanicals and immense capabilities off road, but with a base architecture that harks back to its Y60 (GQ) predecessor from the 1980s, and a production cycle that lasted nearly 20 years, some Patrols are better than others.
The GU evolved over its lifetime, going through ten series iterations, some receiving major mechanical and power plant updates, others cosmetic and trim changes (all the details are listed below) but there are key things to watch out for when it comes to the GU so before you make the Patrol commitment, read on.

In terms of engine choices, if you want a solid workhorse of a Patrol that should hopefully go forever, stick with the 4.2-litre TD42Ti intercooled-turbo diesel. Or, find a Patrol with the lowest mileage with the most recently built, post-2004 ZD30 common-rail diesel within your budget would also be an excellent way to go.
Just avoid the earlier ZD30 models at all costs.
Check the body for signs of abuse, make sure it has a thorough service history and try to get a Patrol with some quality aftermarket accessories and you’ll have yourself one hell of a truck.
