The Nissan Patrol 4WD Club of NSW & ACT Inc. was established in 1976 by a group of four wheel drive enthusiasts from other clubs, interested in pursuing common interests and activities, and aiming to give the Nissan Patrol its own standing. No longer limited to the Nissan Patrol, membership is open to all types of four wheel drives and all ages – both people and vehicles! We are very excited to be celebrating our 45th Anniversary this year and will be hosting an event for all Club members and those that would like to join us in October 2021.
The atmosphere has always been one of fun and friendship attracting a wide variety of people from all over Sydney and the countryside. Our Club holds regular driver training weekends for all members, trips from one day to several weeks duration (such as outback trips) and a variety of social activities. Over the last few years the Nissan Patrol 4WD Club has had trips to the Victorian High Country, Corner Country, Simpson Desert, Central QLD, Fraser Island, Outback NSW & Tasmania.
What about weekend trips and history? – Nissan Patrol 4WD Club members run regular trips within a couple of hours of Sydney that take in a range of 4WDing and often explore some of the history of our State. The trips are graded depending on the degree of difficulty, to cater for the different levels of driver and vehicle ability or of interest.
Once you become a club member you have access to our own 94ha “slice of heaven” near Goulburn. This land is used for the Club’s extensive Driver Training Program which not only covers 4WD training but also vehicle set up, bush maintenance, use of chainsaws and other equipment. We even have an old vehicle that we roll over as part of our Advanced Recovery Training.
In addition to all this you can access quality 4WD equipment at discounted pricing through the Club Shop as well as receive discounts on a whole range of gear from recognised suppliers in the marketplace.
We are strongly committed to “Access for All” in our National Parks and State Forests, protecting the environment through the Tread Lightly policy of four wheel driving and helping to “Clean Up Australia” by cleaning up our bushland.
The Nissan Patrol 4WD Club NSW & ACT Inc. supports Four Wheel Drive NSW & ACT (the peak body of 4WD Clubs in New South Wales) and the Outdoor Recreation Party in their goal of maintaining access for all to our National Parks and State Forests.
