$20,460

The 2016 Nissan Patrol range of configurations is currently priced from $16,999.

Our most recent review of the 2016 Nissan Patrol resulted in a score of 6 out of 10 for that particular example.

Carsguide Contributing Journalist Andrew Chesterton had this to say at the time: As nostalgic as the Hey, Hey It's Saturday reunion, the Y61 Patrol has rightly built its cult following, despite lacking some non-negotiable safety kit. There are far more comfortable ways to tackle tarmac, but if your morning commute requires you to take the roads less travelled, then the Nissan Patrol Legend Edition is a huge amount of fun.

Nissan Patrol 2016 FAQs

Nissan Patrol 2016: Potential problems with Y61 engine?

It can be a good idea to buy the last model in the line, all the problems have been well and truly sorted out and it's usually the best built. The downside is that it will lose a little more in value when the new model comes out and buyers turn away from the old one. The 3.0-litre turbo-diesel was a problem when it first came out, and we got lots of reports from owners with blown-up engines, but the reports have stopped coming. That suggests the problems have been sorted and the engine is performing well.
