Carsguide Contributing Journalist David Morley had this to say at the time: In pretty much every way, the answer is yes. The GQ was tough, relatively well built, and rugged enough to cop the worst that most owners threw at it.

The 1993 Nissan Patrol carries a braked towing capacity of up to 2800 Kg, but check to ensure this applies to the configuration you're considering.

What is the best 4WD for $15000?
I'D GO for the GQ Nissan Patrol. It's tough, plenty of parts are available and everyone knows how to fix them. I don't have any real problem with the Jeep, though early ones were poorly built and rather rudimentary with a small cabin.

Going out on patrol
THE MQ is really getting a little long in the tooth, so I would recommend you think about a GQ, though you will find it hard to fit one within your budget. Going by your description of the sort of driving you will be doing I would advise against the Patrol. It sounds like a very expensive way of getting to the city, ferrying the kids around and going shopping, with only an occasional weekend away. Go for a regular car -- it will be better suited to your needs and be less expensive to run. If you must go for a Patrol, buy the 4.2-litre petrol GQ.

Nissan Patrol 2000: Is the 3.0-litre turbo diesel good for towing?
YOU could tow your outfit with a 3.0-litre turbo-diesel, but I couldn't recommend the 3.0-litre turbo-diesel GU Patrol because there are too many reports of engine problems. They seem to have problems running at high loads on the highway. See this week's used cars report.
