Is the flag on the back a dune flag or an antenna with a flag?

What's the stock weight of a Patrol? I love my Navara, but wished only that it were more compact and lighter. How do you like the engine?

Nother victorian here

love the look of a series 4, ive got a series 3 4.2, never did trust the migthy handgrenade...i mean 3l patrol!

she looks great, how do you find the 5" lift? ive got only a 2 (OME) but im looking for something a bit bigger, fit 33's comfortably.


oh and if you havent blank off the EGR before it does nasty things to the motor, its next on my to do list and cost's bugger all

Cheers
