Looks smart.
I got a similar one a few weeks back from parker (looks near the same)
What did the draper one cost if you dont mind me asking?

That's brilliant. A truck like that down here would command a pretty pennyCouple of my pics of the inside. After a week of using it it’s damn handy. Not got everything how I want it but getting there.

Cheers. It’s bloody handy. Came from North England but I got a good deal on it. Was a dealer sale but he says he doesn’t put much of a mark up on the vans he sells as he just wants them to keep moving.That's brilliant. A truck like that down here would command a pretty penny

Blimey that's a lot of extras! What did you pay if you don't mind my asking?Cheers. It’s bloody handy. Came from North England but I got a good deal on it. Was a dealer sale but he says he doesn’t put much of a mark up on the vans he sells as he just wants them to keep moving.
I’d deal with him again. That’s saying a lot for a car dealer!!
I hate to think what it cost new. Strongs body. All kitted out in Bott and Premier Hazard stuff. Victron charging and battery protector etc etc. warn 8000 on the front with dyneema rope. That’s your tax dollars working hard boys!![]()

It’s ex Severn Trent Water.
I paid £7k incl the vat which I’ll get back anyway.
There’s a lot to it to be fair. I was impressed with how much for the money.
I had one. Mine was a Vauxhall brava. Same thing I think? It used to do my head in. Going to parts counters - “can I have xyz for a Vauxhall brava please?” “You mean a fiat brava?” “No you bellend if I meant fiat id have said fiat” is how it used to goThe AA used to have something similar a good few years ago based on an Isuzu pickup, the body on the back was OK - not as good as yours, but the amount of kit loaded meant they had next to none towing capacity. If I was still self-employed, I'd be looking for one of those, better for load carrying than my Freelander 2 Commercial but not as comfy!
The price was a no brainer. Not sure what it’s like there but pickups have gone stupid here. Mate paid £12k for a 10 plate one the week before I agreed on that one.I was after something similar when I got my L200, had to be double cab though so more like £17k
Flipping hell has he got any more?It’s ex Severn Trent Water.

Yer, probably the same / similar - VX & Isuzu had various tie-ins until Renault caught their eye... I think the Isuzu / VX pickups would have been introduced early 90's, pretty much as I left UK to chase work in Africa and elswhere, when I came back, they were all gone and Transits ruled the roost once again.I had one.

That was a good size workshop. Had a fold down step and you could get right in it. The AA left a tyre lever in it which I still have. That would have been late 90’s?
They sold off a lot of VW vans as well. They all went through EAMA at Norwich where i was living near at the time.
Not on his eBay. There was only one other when I bought this one and that was in Bradford and £3k more. It was a bit cleaner / lower miles mind.Flipping hell has he got any more?
€402 ex vat. In Ireland. Same pressure washer last year was €360 ex vat from the same seller.Looks smart.

I'm sure the first ones were Isuzu badged - this is early 90's BTW before AA got the VX Motorman contract. RAC had the Trooper and prior to that, something SWB that I can't remember. I had a VX Astramax then a Transit (well, two, due to the air intake sucking up surface water catastrophically).AA ones were Vauxhall Bravas.
RAC now have Isuzu D Maxs, they can tow 3.5t. Officially known as HD Maxs, but more often known as sandwich vans.
Nice , I just missed them with their new year break unfortunately but cant blame themHopefully will pick up a couple of other bits too, but that should be a good start.
Look forward to trying them out when I get the workshop renovation finished and finally get the lathe back up and running.
