Old isuzu rodeo

[mx110]

Anyone running an old 2003, 3.0 rodeo? Looking for a cheap run around workhorse, not to do many miles more just a use and abuse kinda vehicle and seen a couple advertised. Are they any good? Reliable?

I have 2004 3l, had it from new now done 105k, been very reliable just the usual consumables, discs, put on a stainless made to fit exhaust which was way cheaper than new Isuzu, some bushes, just passed mot with no issues which amazed me!
Are the 2003 uk or grey imports, the imports have D-Max in big letters across the tailgate.

I have had a 53 plate for around 5 years now. Good truck. Has needed a few brake and suspension bits and bobs but other than that all pretty good. The 3,0 engine is great.

No better or worse than any others on fuel I reckon - 350 miles per fill, bit less if towing.

Just trying to decide how to replace it now - my wife now says it's too scruffy for her to use when I take the car.
