This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Iconic Sale at Silverstone Festival 2025 - Collectors Cars on Saturday the 23rd of August, The Wing, Silverstone Circuit, NN12 8TN. First introduced to the UK in 2000 and revised through to 2009, the Y61-generation Nissan Patrol was a rugged, body on frame 4x4 designed to tackle the most treacherous terrain whilst simultaneously offering luxury, space, and refinement. The Patrol is powered by Nissan’s ever-dependable ZD30 3-litre four-cylinder turbodiesel, producing 158bhp and 354Nm of torque, paired here with a 4-speed automatic gearbox and a full time four-wheel drive system with low-range transfer case. The SVE specification includes automatic climate-control, leather upholstery, heated front seats, cruise-control, electrically adjustable driver’s seat, side steps, privacy glass, roof rails, and 17" alloy wheels. The model also features ABS, dual front airbags, and a selectable four-wheel drive system with locking centre differential ensuring the Patrol remained a truly capable off-roader beneath its luxury appointments. Combining true off-road ability with high specification and comfort is no easy feat, but the Patrol accomplished it with ease making it a direct rival to the Toyota Land Cruiser Amazon, Mitsubishi Shogun, Land Rover Discovery and upper-tier Jeep Grand Cherokee models of the period. This particular Patrol is a true collector-grade example. Registered new in 2005 and specified in AX5 Red with a cream leather interior, it has had just one private owner from new and has covered an astonishingly low 2,120 miles in total. Preserved to the highest standards, it remains in immaculate, time-warp condition throughout, with every surface, trim and mechanical element presenting exactly as it would have when delivered new. The car still retains its original jack in its leather holdall seemingly untouched, like much of the rest of the vehicle. The interior shows no signs of wear, the leather remains soft and unmarked and even the switchgear retains its factory texture and finish. Outside, the paintwork retains a deep, factory-correct gloss with no signs of corrosion, fading or blemishing. The underbody was professionally Waxoyled in 2020 at 1,965 miles and it’s likely never once seen a wet day. Panels, wheel arches and even factory fasteners remain as delivered. Its MOT record is equally astonishing. The car has never once had an advisory, pulling a clean sheet every single year. The MOT expired in 2023 whilst the car resided in the temperature-controlled collection until resurfacing for auction. This is not a recommissioned vehicle or a restored example, it is completely original, never neglected and meticulously preserved for two decades. Vehicles of this calibre and originality are exceptionally rare, a true unicorn if you will. With just 2,120 miles, one owner and a flawless MOT record, this is almost certainly the finest surviving example of a UK-market Y61 Patrol. Whether added to a Collection or simply cherished as a once in a lifetime acquisition, this Patrol offers an unrepeatable opportunity to secure a pristine, flagship 4x4 from a bygone era, one that was built to last.
