1986 Isuzu Trooper review from North America

Nothing has gone wrong with the car ever since I have owned it other than common mechanics brakes, belts, water pump, lights etc. other everyday use items such as door hinges and door spring devices has been easily replaced, but I change oil and filters after 2000 miles and grease the fittings, seats worn out, but that's it!!

First and foremost the trooper is the most reliable car I have found simple and easy to fix and maintain I gotten the car when I was 17 and still drive it today in it's past it has been in a head on accident and with a major face lift and a very good paint job it rides the road again. the a/c I retro fitted to 134a and is ice cold the engine being diesel is slow, but has a lot of torqe to spare and is very good on mileage getting 36mpg and runs very cool. The cabin is very roomy, I can lay the seat back and I can stretch my legs to get a rest and since I am gone for months at a time (navy) I come back to it and it starts like it was was yesterday, other than that parts at times are hard to find. I will hold on to this car forever and I will be buried in it.
