The Appeal
The Nissan Patrol is renowned for its rugged dependability and off-road prowess, with the 3.3 turbo diesel long-wheelbase variant particularly sought after for its immense practicality and engine durability.
This 1988 example represents a rare opportunity to acquire a thoroughly restored 4x4, having benefited from comprehensive bodywork, mechanical, and interior refurbishment.
Originally from Southern Italy, this Patrol reportedly benefited from a rust-free body that has been completely repainted in its original bronze finish, while the interior has been tastefully refreshed with reupholstered seats and door panels.
