Nissan Patrol – off-road SUV since 1951, rival to the Toyota Land Cruiser: Y60 and Y61 (GR) generations, four- to eight-cylinder engines from 2.8 to 5.9 litres
The Patrol has been Nissan's heavy-duty off-roader since 1951 and traditionally the Toyota Land Cruiser's direct rival; in Japan it was sold in part as the Nissan Safari. The models recorded in the register come mainly from the Y60 (from 1987) and Y61 (from 1997, marketed with the GR suffix) generations, identifiable by chassis codes such as KY, TE or WY in the model names; body styles included the short three-door and the long STW estate (Station Wagon). The Patrol was powered by straight-six diesel and petrol engines, and in some market versions of the later Y62 generation also by eight-cylinder engines.

The register lists 143 versions with power outputs from 70 to 116 kW, displacements from 2,820 to 5,883 cm³ and four to eight cylinders. Unladen weights range from 1,740 to 2,699 kg, permissible gross weights from 2,300 to 3,200 kg, widths from 1,650 to 2,090 mm; length figures are only recorded for a smaller share of the models.
As a rugged expedition and military off-roader, the Patrol has been scarcely available in Europe since the early 2010s, but remains a sales success in the Middle East, Australia and Africa.
On used examples, check rust on the ladder frame and spring mounts, the condition of the transfer-case seals, the injection pump or turbocharger on diesel engines, the braking system on the heavier Y61 models, and the availability of spare parts outside the core markets, which is limited in Europe.
