People seem to forget that these old 4wds made in the 70s to early 2000s were built to last a long ass time.. Way longer than the stuff coming out now days. Hence the sheer amount of serviceable parts they have. 500,000 plus k's with unopened motors is no problem for a well maintained td42, 1hz, 1fze, 12ht, 1hd etc.. these engines are more or less truck engines that are easy to work on, will cop a lot of punishment and will go for a bloody long time. If you have the coin for a brand new 4wd go for it, but realise 99% of 4wd tracks can be done in a sub 10k 4wd that will still be reliable. It won't be some chopped 200 series but the beer inside still tastes the fucken same
Isuzu is the only one I consider to be like an old 4bie. Ignore the newly released one since it hasn't had time to be fully tested but the 4jj1 is a light commercial truck engine and is built to go the distance and take a flogging.
Hey Mate, I sold my 76 series LandCruiser that was under finance and then bought a 4.2 GU patrol with the profit thanks to COVID. Am now debt free and focusing on a house also. Refreshing to hear someone who went through same thing!
@@Nick-sd7um well, I've inherited a lot of issues such as a rear main leak and sometimes it won't start, not to mention I now have to always worry about my EGTs. All things I never used to think about 😂 That being said, I wouldn't take my decision back!!
I done a similar thing and sold my s4 twin locked tb48 patrol and colorado to get a house and once we were settled bought a n80 hilux and am now looking at an old shitbox gq to thrash up the bush best decision I ever made owning your own home is awesome!
100% done the right move mate, soon as you buy your first house the banks will throw money at you later on if you ever decide to buy again! Basically done the same and managed to get 5 houses in 5 years with just using equity. Good luck.
I was in the white gq wagon that went up that hard track can’t remember the name of it but you and your mates all took the easy line, I wanted to see coal go up the hard line
Patrol is a nice rig mate......... if you learn how to create your own promissory note then you can buy any wheels you like, with change left over to comb its hair
6 and a half years ago I did the same thing I sold my brand new car and got a gq ute to save money for a house. It was the best thing I ever did I am still driving the gq but the misses and I have our house and are stoked. I am about to buy a new Nav because we can afford it now that we have the house already. 👍👍
Best move I made mate built a house own a td42 gq would never buy a bran new car even if the accountant told me I had to for a tax right off haha! Old rigs for the win!
Hey man how did you go selling the Nav with the DPF delete? Was he feeling a bit sketchy on that or was he happy with it? I’m thinking of selling my Ranger with the DPF removed
It’s sad to see so many p platers going out and buying near new dual cabs thinking it’s the best out there and there’s no other choice and they spend so much money they could use modifying a cheaper forbie and have just as good of a time
How much deposit do you need 10%? I got heaps good business with good cash flow but shitty personal loans and credit cards. Can't leverage anything atm with banks and don't want to sell my car. Not yet anyway.

@@mattstreet4104 That’s the only struggle with buying 4.2 patrols, it’s hard finding one that either hasn’t been abused or stupid high km
@@thatsgangsta2450you're not wrong. A rare commodity now. thankfully mine *only* has 190 thou, I guess it could be worse right
@@mattstreet4104 what a score!
just curious of what the price of the total build of the patrol
20k

Hey man how did you go selling the Nav with the DPF delete? Was he feeling a bit sketchy on that or was he happy with it? I’m thinking of selling my Ranger with the DPF removed
are you thinking about putting lockers in
There would be a heap of people in the same position that would benefit from selling their ticked up ute and buying one with 200kms on for half the $$
can someone tel me wear i coud buy a dash mat ? please
What did you sell the nav for ?
It’s sad to see so many p platers going out and buying near new dual cabs thinking it’s the best out there and there’s no other choice and they spend so much money they could use modifying a cheaper forbie and have just as good of a time
