fruitloop Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 I was having trouble finding one . I was getting totally peed off looking at 150,000/200,000 +vehicle's that looked like it was being used as a builders truck to throw bricks in ------ from the top of the scaffold.... then you will see the ones that look the right price then in the small print it says +vat or it was a scammer . I,d understand if I was expecting to buy one dirt cheep but I was not . I was willing to pay a reasonable price for a reasonable car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Essex Keeper Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Why not look at Isuzu more truck for the money's I will look at my local garage tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigeonslayer15 Posted November 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Ive not really looked at those, ill have a little look now, That would be great Thankyou Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Isuzu's seem far more, just get yourself onto autotrader and enter the details there are loads about. Finance wise a personal loan and buying privately would save you a lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesj Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 The isuzu's are good truck just a bit bouncy for my liking. there are some good l200 out there i managed to pick up a 06 elegance for £5000 as it didn't fit with the traders type of stock and he just wanted it gone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigeonslayer15 Posted November 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Ive bin having a look at the isuzu, they look a nice truck but I do prefer the l200, ive got my mind set on one now, all I got to do is find one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickyh Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 or look at Nissan Navara's .. Seem to get the same amount of truck for a little less money than an L200. I visited my parents in Hereford recently and they've got a Mitsi dealer choc full of nice L200's. Down here in the South East its a different story...

fruitloop Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 was looking for a 06 plate and had £7500 to spend . I also looked at the Nissan nervara but found them the same problems so I got a disco 2 ES with 70,000 on the clock full service history sun roofs cheque and resealed and a 3 month engine and gearbox warranty +tow pack fitted for me as there was not one.so well happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a few mates the same problem. Also no of a few newer shape L200 still have head gasket problems. Its a shame as I really liked mine. I have a toyota hilux now.
