1988 Isuzu Trooper review from North America
"It may not be dependable, but it's a very fun car to drive"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The exhaust and muffler rusted easily.
Various parts under the hood and exterior parts were constantly having to be replaced.
General comments?
A very fun vehicle to drive around town in.
However its very boxy and when reaching speeds over 50 miles an hour, it feels as if it will tip.
