1998 Nissan Patrol GU
replaces the ten year old Nissan Patrol GQ.
A GQ Patrol
shows its axle articulation (right).
In the "old days", the Patrol was the cheapest and crudest
of the heavy-weight four wheel drives (Land-Rover, Toyota and Nissan)
but they followed L-R to the use of coil springs on their station wagon
well before Toyota did.
The standard coils soon sag and cannot carry much weight
but a GQ Patrol with after-market coil springs can be quite agile.
1999:
Renault bought 36.8% of Nissan which had heavy debts.

Holden Astra Convertible Turbo(Highly recommended sports car), from $49,990
This European convertible is a stunning car in so many ways. It's a great drive (with high performance 147kw Turbo). It's practical and apart from a small boot has abundant room for 4 or 5 at a pinch. It's loaded with standard features: air, power windows / steer, cruise, 6 speaker CD, ABS, traction control, airbags & more. It also looks great! My Managing Director's lovely wife owns one of these & I have no hesitation in recommending this car to you. A true bargain for a high performance Euro Convertible.
