Well, the tried and trusted tank of a D4D, 2007 - I am considering selling, I'd like something more standard and auto.

My toy remains 2013 Gen3 Jimny, now finished and ready to enjoy.

Here goes:

1st: 2002 Nissan Hardbody 2.4 D-Cab (still own it. 265kkm, and still going strong)

2nd: 2013 Nissan Navara 2.5 LE - Never should have sold the thing. 😢

3rd: 2002 Land Rover Discovery 2 TD5 - Sent a piston to the moon! 🤣

4th: 2003 Grand Cherokee 4l - capable, but boring.

5th: 2019 Duster 1.5 EDC - Not 4wd, but I’ve done quite a bit of gravel travel in perfect comfort (still have it)

6th: 2004 Discovery 2 V8 - flawless… but thirsty.

7th 2023 GWM P-Series LS - read up hereviewtopic.php?f=24&t=1763

OT, but I was always very sad that Nissan SA refused to sell the D22 Hardbody here in DC with the YD25 engine. Really a poor show.
