I have never seen one off road myself but have heard they are pretty good on the lanes.

It has to be worth the £50 just to try it surely. You could spend that on two sites.....

Keep us posted

Meant to be really good in standard form, but as usual with Jap, they cost to mod.... Drivetrain is usual Jap quality so even if you stole the running gear and put a new body on.... ;)

Hey - if you decide not to buy it can you let me know who's selling pls as I'm after some spares for a Patrol and at £50 it's worth me buying the whole car and just keeping it in the garden for future bits...

Could you PM me the guy's number if/when you've decided?

Can borrow trailer so can collect, no problem.

 Will do going down next weekend to have a look at it. The story behind it is about 2 years ago the owner got a ban so he could not be bother putting the car in storage so he give it to the local shoot to run around in. they have only used it a few times to take feed to the birds and now its in the way. so they want to get rid of it. Will keep you posted and get some pics of it next weekend.
