Those 3 litre petrol engines in models from 2000'ish are most wanted now in EU since there are more and more cities closed for any diesels :cry: I live 100 miles from Berlin and can not go to the city with my Nissan Patrol any more.
Any way; goos for You X5 has strait 6 - they are simpler, more...
Welcome to the forum!!
Sure your X5 will do the job. Must know oil pan in X5's is prepared for longer traverse driving... So don't worry.
I believe You have 4,4 gas engine in Your rig - sure it's very capable, but thirsty as well. In overlanding quite important factor is a range - how deep can...
I love them.
Light, wisely stiff body and tank-bullet-prove axles. this must work off-road.
TD42 is a legend engine....
Mine are high-roofs and this is + in overlanding :kissingheart:
Confirmed. SD33 and TD42 are one of its kind in-line 6 engines. First installed in american INTERLATIONAL HARVESTER SCOUT in numbers of 6500 units and NISSAN PATROL from 80's all over the world. Second in legendary NISSAN PATROL Y60 immortal engine
Very good idea indeed!!! I'm getting sick from lock-down.
Making a trip You are very welcome to Poland, at least western part. I can organize some nice obstalces to go through... ;-)
I could also join the whole trip untill going with my my SYNCRO is ok with You... My Patrol is during small...
Are You going to change the tires only? Or rims as well? Be awared of ET doing so. Patrol is capable for 35" tires only if ET is under control
Recommend thinking of mod of rear locker - this electronic they install in factory is full of s..t
Have You heard of UNURBAN.no?
He is travelling around the world with own Patrol - quite impressive from point if logistics...

Sure, I understand that until it concerns my M3 SMG but not a 4x4 vehicle that might be concidered as overlander. The rest I agree - U R > :tonguewink:
Thinking overland - whats Your opinnion about that gear swich? For me it's sucks to rely on some electronic connectors intead of phisical lever... Can't imagine an issue with it in the middle of Mohave Desert :fearscream:
Welkome >mirzam< . Great place for overlanding. Bosnian mountains are one of the most wild and interesting in whole Europe. Maybe equal with Gorgany.
Would be nice to meet U there one time in future. ;-)
I can tell U why. Maybe it'll clear out why PATROL/ARMADA is most wanted in Emirats, Russia, Ausiess and still have no reputation in US.
And this is not my text - that's why it is quoted :
"Over the years many of us Patrol enthusiasts have happened across a rumor either on the Internet of by...
I can recommend Andrew St. Pierre White (Hope I write it right)
His chanel YT gives an opportunity joining for his photography courses and they are just great. He is an OVERLANDER himself and that is why it's so interesting...
