I recently bought 1993 Isuzu trooper 2 Dr, very very rare truck, so far I rebuild auto trans, fixed rear beaks, and couple leaks, which is normal for the age and millage, it passed state emission and inspection easily.

Petrol or diesel? We got them here as Holden Jackaroos. http://www.carsales.com.au/car/holden/jackaroo/2-doors/

it is 3.2 DOHC V6 4x4 with 230K on it, but runs super. exterior and interior is good for the age. will post some Pics from Trooper soon. It took me a while ( 1-1/2 Yrs) to find this one, it was sitting in barn . Here in U.S only 500 were imported back in 1993 , not sure how many are survived, this one way rare than Kizashi.

Come to think of it, I've never seen a 2 door Trooper. Pretty cool.
I've seen many 4 door Troopers and even drove one back when I was 17.
Interesting how Honda also used these SUVs before they made their own.
The Honda Passport and the Acura SLX were really just rebadged Isuzu Rodeos and Troopers, respectively.

Now, it's very hard to find Isuzu vehicles that aren't commercial or transport vehicles in the US and even Japan, but I did see quite a few of them as diesel pick-up trucks in Thailand.
