vehicle description:
Please find for sale my Isuzu Trooper.
This vehicle has had two previous owners (Father and son) then myself. I bought it last last year for taking my 10 yr old son"s motorcycle around but he is bored with it already and so it has been sold.
The Trooper has 135k on the clock and is in great condition, the previous owner (the son mentioned above) had has own small haulage firm and so the vehicle has been serviced every year. She also had a new cam belt in May 2014 at 127K so that"s done.
She has had new disc"s and pads on the rear. I have also refurbished the rear calipers with new seals and pistons, It has had new pads on the front (I had bought discs too but the existing had very little ware so I left them on so the new ones are in the boot).
April 2016 MOT - Also no advisories - This is really good ;)
I had the vehicle serviced by Douglas Paul in Rotherham at around 133k (Nov/Dev last year).
All of the gears are there and no rattles or abnormal gearbox noises, engine runs sweet and is the 3.1 Diesel which is the best one to have (the 3.0 had valve issues).
The vehicle has a few dents along the side where it was elbowed and scratched by someone when the previous owner has the car (2006), the Thug also saw fit to throw a brick through the rear window. The previous owner made an insurance claim on this then bought the truck back off the insurance so it does have a Catd registered (This does not affect your insurance), The rear window was fixed by fitting of new back doors (in the same color as the vehicle) and the small dents and scratch have remained as is, because they doesn"t affect the vehicle.
The previous owner also had a pit at his haulage business and as such the Trooper has been under sealed every year. He also kept it under the cover of their barn at home as did his father (sheep farmer). With this there is no rust except a little on the boot door as shown in the pictures. When I took the vehicle for it"s MOT the guys at the center were so surprised at the condition of the chassis they at first they thought it had had a new one at some point (it hasn"t - all original).
This is a great truck and is much cheaper to purchase and maintain than the land rovers, All of the parts are still around as they are shared with so many other vehicles.
She is in great condition and lovely to driver. Only bad points are the electric aerial doesn"t work (but I get radio reception with the aerial as it is), the wipers on the front lights don"t work. The 4x4 light shows you are in 4x4 all of the time but you are not, it is just a switch fault - this vehicle has a 2wd/4wd leaver and when you engage the leaver the switch puts the light on. This mechanical leaver for 2wd/4wd is also much better that the newer models as they have a button and the thing is electronic and prone to failure when the solenoid packs in - not with this - Manual leaver for men to operate not a big girls switch for jessies to press.
Vehicle has not been green lane"ing or used off road expect previous owner who used to access the sheep field in the vehicle.
Also Massive tread on tires, they will have been around £400/£500 fitted. I have also reconditioned the ront prop as the Union Joint was a little worn. It is critical these are done because if they fail (even in 2wd mod) the prop shafts usually go through the gearbox and/or floor.
I"m happy for any inspection.
If you want an more information the please just let me know.
