trickyh Posted April 9, 2020 Report Share Posted April 9, 2020 Would never touch a Nissan Navara again after the farce with their chassis rotting through. I lost a fortune on that truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westley78 Posted April 9, 2020 Report Share Posted April 9, 2020 There are some good deals around on ford rangers.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B391 Posted April 9, 2020 Report Share Posted April 9, 2020 We have had 2 x Navarra. Both have been very reliable and neither have had chassis problems. The previous model was very good, the current one, 67plate, has been ultra reliable apart from one sensor whoich was a warranty fix The 1st one covered about 100k and the current one is on about 65k. We will either get the same again or maybe a Ford Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archi Posted April 9, 2020 Report Share Posted April 9, 2020 The new rangers seem good and a lot better drive that the old model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kennett Posted April 9, 2020 Report Share Posted April 9, 2020 All depends what you want it for? Out and out work horse, towing, family run about with a big boot? They have different strengths and weaknesses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modafinale Posted April 9, 2020 Report Share Posted April 9, 2020 Had a L200 engine lasted 55,000 before it was toast. Mate has a Isuzu I personally think the interior trim is cheap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancer425 Posted April 9, 2020 Report Share Posted April 9, 2020 I was looking at a Pickup last month, And Was thinking hilux. but went in a mates Isuzu D Max and thought it was great. It has some miles on it now hard miles and its been good. Still a toyota hilux fan though, Toyota pickups are very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39TDS Posted April 9, 2020 Report Share Posted April 9, 2020 Pros and cons with all of them but I think Hilux are probably the best. Doesn't mean the others aren't worth having. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
