From classifieds. I thought diahatsu had pulled out from the uk

 

[Nearly]

Grey imports.
They look value compared to a gator.
Most things do actually.

it will probably be a import


we had 1 30 year ago was a cracking little truck when working

 

[Still Farming]

Skip over the land with that.

The seller looks to be a dealer in london. Would it be capable of pulling a trailer

Would need to be a very small trailer, but I would be exceptionally cautious purchasing

Looks like it wouldn't meet UK emissions rules.

Looking at Polaris gator things at show yesterday. Around 20k. Would rather have a 4wd mini truck on decent tyres.

Yes we had one as well, dad was driving past spotted it outside the dealers, salesman said it hadn't been there ten minutes.
Dad just had it as his daily run about, checking cattle out in the fields.
Four wheel drive worked quite well until it didn't one day, if I remember rightly it was going to be expensive to fix, he traded it against a second hand Rocky Pick up.

Meant to be very good. There are suzuki versions as well which might be easier to get fixed if daihatsu don't sell in the UK anymore.
They can't tow much but about the same as a gator type thing.

Honda make one too as I spotted one in Worcestershire a couple of days ago.

Bit like a Bedford Rascal.

Do they do a soft top?

Bedford Rascal was a Suzuki Super Carry in disguise.

With double cab pickups approaching 40k we need a decent alternative.

Main drawback for livestock famers be lack of towing capacity.

Worlds mad, a bobcat skid steer is around 50k now for a decent sized 1

That’s the latest ranger though by the looks, they are huge. Older model be similar size to the rascal I would have thought?

Engines are 660cc. How do you think they'd pull?
