Mine wasn’t new so paint was allready missing
Maybe now would be a good time to look at updating to a newer one if prices are so low

I’ve just listed this one if anyone needs a cheap white tiny van down in the pointy end of the country. Used it for apprentices to get to work, and then my daughter learnt to drive in it and used it for a year. I have bought her something bigger now so it’s unused and needs to go.

do it as well as you can,but learn to do it better
on the subject of S/H vehicles .... what's a 2.5D Isuzu Trooper worth? .. Mint, black double cab, two different back covers for it (one ali, one colour matched- lockable side windows, GRP - again very tidy/near mint, new BFs all round, just had 1200 quid spent on discs/pads all round + rear springs and summat else I can't recall ... 19 plate ... one previous owner - town dweller, used as a car! IIRC 80k on the clock ... I know the current owner and it gets pampered

Or rodeo. What year is it and what does it look like underneath. Paint work can be perfect and no chassis left

Says 19plate.. so must be Dmax? Value depends on spec as big difference between utility (like mine) and the top models. Same engine on all though.. just lots of toys

Can't be a 19 plate with 2.5 engine though. Changed to 1.9 end of 2017

Yes-less well loved than the 2.5 twin turbo. Although the new 2021 onwards 1.9 is allegedly better than the old 2.5

deffo not a D-max ... thought he said trooper but might've been Rodeo ... was sort of half listening and trying to do summat tricky at the time ... this lad looks after his vehicles
Obviously would crawl all over it, but no reason to disbelieve him -- works for Simon's brother - been out there today .. and he's a pretty straight lad.I may well have heard wrong, but
will put some pix up in me thread after and you'll see why I wasn't paying too much attention to the conversation

I may well have heard wrong, butsure he said it was 19............. scratch that .. just spoke to Simon and it's 09 Rodeo - said it's been well looked after and the previous owner literally used it around Gloucester as a 'car' with a big boot!!

Problem is people get silly over pickups
Someone will give the best part of 10k for it but realistically for a 14 year old vehicle that will rot out long before any major mechanical worries it should be <3k. Pickups are starting to fall now so might see the return of some value.

know what you mean ....
he was talking five .... would've been four but just spent 1200 quid MOT-ing it (as above, plus a new lump of exhaust apparently - didn't hear that bit) ... thought it worth a sniff at with its history

In my mind when trucks get to that age they should be about 1k per trouble free motoring left in it. Depending on chassis I doubt it's going to have long before it is no longer trouble free.
I think Ukraine are still paying about 1200 quid for any 4x4 that runs
