The Appeal
It’s no surprise to learn that this Patrol’s history includes time supporting a mountain rescue team. Even among 4x4s, the GU/Y61-generation Patrol stands out for its all-terrain capability. This generation benefits from an ‘overbuilt’ driveline with particularly tough steering, front end and CV joint fittings.
As a 2008 model, this smart white five-door benefits from the much-improved CRD 3L diesel engine, a unit noted for its rugged durability. It is mated to a 5spd manual box, but considering the history, you may have already guessed that. It presents very well in photos, and the vendor reports that the bodywork and underside are in particularly good order. The interior is protected with a set of £1,000 Melville & Moon seat covers. It comes with a massive three-inch-thick history file.
With advisory-free MOT to October 2027, this hugely capable workhorse looks ready for whatever the buyer wants to throw at it.
The vendor says:
“Amazing car that will go anywhere, tow anything and as comfortable as a Range Rover.”
