If you're good you'll spot em...

As the title suggests. The first is a Land Rover History video with some quick patrol action. Link Below.

Another is a Disney movie called "Snowball Express"(1972). It's a great movie if you haven't seen it and I spotted a number of patrols throughout the movie. Never any big scenes but are definitely in the background in various places. Highly recommended the movie.

Great video, and a must see for any 4x4 fan. I still think that our Patrols are way better in every aspect to the old Land Rovers. But those are icons, and their body style is great.

Thanks for posting this. By the way, a 60 series Patrol shows at around minute 10.

x2.

I did notice that they showed the FJ struggling in that puddle and used it as an example of Land Rover's "offroad superiority"...but they didn't show the Patrol for very long, which suggests to me that it cleaned the obstacle with at least equal aplomb to the Landy :shhh: No surprises there !

This movie is an eyeroller. Very Disney, silly fun. Had to rent it.... checkers, I think I saw 2 Patrols...a white one in the background, slightly out of focus, in a scene where a man is talking and looking out the window. The second was red way down the street parked in a street scene. Favorite part is when a bar patron complains "I have a fish in my drink!"....the bartender goes..."SHhhhhh, don't say it so loud....or everybody'll want one."
