Re: What you don't like about your Patrol!
That I dont have the time to drive it offroad more frequently 
Would have liked a bit more power on the road, especially above 1500m above sealevel.
Other than than nothing.

Re: What you don't like about your Patrol!
First of all its not an amphibian craft, thats a pity!
No serious, the electric windows drives me nuts, I still want to convert it so that it works without the Ignition power on.Its a abosolute nuisance in a game park.
I would have also prefered less carpeting, and more vinyl matting. The carpets at the back are a dust/mud trap and it looks terrible are 2 weeks of holiday.

Re: What you don't like about your Patrol!
Good topic.
1. the boing boing - key in ignition. But, sorted thanx to your posts on the forum
2. the electric aerial. Have broken my second and now looking for a suitable whip aerial replacement.
3. electrics and water - as Koos pointed out, esp. the newer models - Even a snorkel won't help here
4. lowest fan speed - would've liked a lower setting
