No worries man, I saw Petes truck last week, Look like a great bus, Cant really complain with 220k in such a short space of time too

Isuzu Rodeo CrewCab. April1st 06, 3litre engine with (wait for it) 120 screaming hoss power. First set of tyres at 70k (Bridgestones), second set did 110k (Goodrich), third set and could still be there at 90k (Hankook). Two sets of spring hangers and some new gearbox seals done under warranty at 180k. They replaced the clutch plate at 180 too but said that if it wasn't for the oil on it - it would have gone back in. Not done much off road apart from muddy yards and trade shows and the odd "off highway" demo, but towed a awful lot over the years. Got thro a fair number of driving light bulbs but it does the job of a reps towtug!

 

I might change it next year and was told that the VW was lining itself as a good 'un but it had better be at the right price and woe be it if it goe's wrong.

Id love an old Toyota Corolla AE86 on dellorto carbs, I saw one at a track day i did a couple of years ago, Rear wheel drive looked soooooooo much fun, Plus it had the old skool factor, Like that L200 of yours
