I'm about to buy an imported 1995 3.1D Isuzu Trooper. Can anyone recommend a good independent in the Melton Mowbray or Boston area who could check it out this week?
Cheers

Don't. The Isuzu 3.1 is not exactly the most reliable engine in the world.

Well, yes - a persistent vegetative stage would probably be the end result of being forced to drive a Toyota Surf...

Possibly the worst engine Toyota have ever made. Stupidly underpowered and with a penchant for cracking heads.
Awesome engine. Impressively powerful and extremely reliable. I transplanted one into a Disco I last year for a mate of mine and the end result is rather good.

That's a nice helpful comment. Or are you suggesting that Land-Rovers are sans faults? Mine certainly isn't, oooh, now where shall I start ...? lol

Heheheh, oh for a Landrover without faults .... ;)
Mind, whatever faults they have, they're still a damn sight better than most of the s**te flooding the country from parts East ...

If you don't want a biased reply, don't post to a alt.FAN newsgroup. Muppet.

What I fail to understand is how it's OK to cross-post to four newsgroups, but not OK to criticise a cross-poster to the same groups.
I'm not keen on cross-posting either, mainly because I can see very few circumstances in which it is justified. But a complaint or criticism should have the same audience as the original material, surely?
