2016 Nissan Patrol Ti V8 REVIEW | Massive SUV, Massive Price Reductions (Plus Extra Technology)
NISSAN SAYS THE CURRENT GENERATION 2016 PATROL WAS SPECIFIED FOR THE MIDDLE EAST MARKET. The awesome V8 petrol engine, massive proportions, obvious interior space and luxury were thus non-negotiable inclusions.
And massive it is, and powerful, and sumptuously luxurious. It’s like a cruise ship of the road, like the Allure Of The Seas… (Google it).
So, those of us with memories of the legendary GQ Patrol, and even earlier generations like the hoary old G60 (pictured below goofing it up with V8 Supercar's Kelly brothers), will just have to accept that “nothing stays the same”. (And get used to all that pampering.)
