Hi guys!
So I am about to buy my first off-roader ever. Unfortunately, I am quite new to Patrols and mechanics and in general a total noob so I might need some advice so I know at least I am getting a good deal (or maybe I should walk away)
Anyway. I am currenlty in Peru and I have found this already modded Nissan Patrol 1999 GU/Y61 with 189.000 KM on the clock and a TB45 petrol and gpl engine.
The owner is asking for 22,500 USD. The car has tons of mods (most of which I want). There aren't many older Patrols on the market and this is one of the best I could find. I plan to inspect the vehicle with a mechanic on the 28th.
Do you think it is a good deal? How much would you pay for it or sell it for if it were yours? Would it be cheaper to find a stock Patrol and do the mods myself? I really don't want to go over 20K (plan to negotiate) and newer models or diesel engines are already selling at 15-20K stock.
I plan to take the vehicle on trips every weekend. Do lots of travels, some rock and mud. I will also be traveling South America for 4-6 months later so I want to have something good for then.

Around there I forgot some more things, but as you can see in extras it has almost $ 20,000 in an eternal truck and one of the best there is to go all over Peru without problems ... may it fall into good hands, greetings
