Most buyers want the looks and practicality of offroaders rather than their ability on tough terrain. This isn't the case with the Patrol though - it's a go-anywhere, near indestructible vehicle that's designed to be driven through the harshest of environments. The long-running series of three and five-door models has evolved gradually (three-door models were dropped from the current line-up in early 2003).Early versions were utilitarian, although this generation - launched in 1998 - is more comfortable. It's very poor on the road though with vague steering, unresponsive brakes and a spongy ride. The Patrol was revised in 2004 with a new body, upgraded interior and more standard equipment.
