local pikey cut'n'shut shop has a bit of mystery machine in.

There was an Isuzu Bighorn 'Lotus Edition': for instance.

Did GMC ever badge engineer them for some other market? Googling for "GMC Isuzu" seems to suggest there has been a strong link between them... lots of US based 'GMC/Isuzu' dealerships.

Could well be that they share a grille mould and someone has put a GMC=20 badge on then. Might take a daylight look tomorrow then. Did GMC ever make RHD vehicles?

Whatever it is, I can make a guess that it's not something you should be buying. But that's never stopped you in the past.

Doesn't matter. You don't want it.

LOL, what has should got to do with anything. The A Team van was a GMC, and nobody calls BA a crazy foo'

Yebbut, remember the episode when he said: "I ain't goin in no rebadged Isuzu"?

MR T's GMC is the only GMC you should have on the drive IMO

That sounds about right, there was an Isuzu with handling by Lotus, the Monterey is an Isuzu Trooper rebadged, it was also sold with an Opel badge, GMC own Vauxhall and Opel.

GM own Vx / Opel.

GMC is a brand owned by GM.

I figured so.

I've heard mention of a few New Zealand models with GMC badges but engine/trans details. It seems UK Isuzu Trooper mainly diesel manual. JDM Isuzu Bighorn mainly diesel auto Vauxhall/Opel Monterey both diesel and petrol auto and manual US Isuzu Trooper petrol auto.

Haven't been able get the GMC details other than "yeah, some have the gmc badge but there are rare here".

I'm reckoning if it is a genuine GMC variant, and RHD and diesel, it is probably a New Zealand import rather than a Jap import or UK model.

GMC stands for General Motors Corporation, also known as GM.

GMC is also used as a name for a division of GMC formerly known as GMC Truck.

The hair splitting contest is over that way ---->

This page lists some of the rebadging done to vehicles:

Yeah found that, but like you say not exactley all encompassing.
