Thanks Guys,

The idea is to put the cap on R130K but the longer you look the newer and the nicer and the pricier they get....

Had a look at 2 so far - one looks great, the other not looked after.

If you know of anything in that range please shout.

Cheers
Lean

Welcome Lean

Enjoy it here and you will find a Patrol soon. There are many Patrols in the for sale section and many new ones will still find their place ther as well.
