    I never knew this was built as an Opel! Very interesting. Looks so sporty in a two-door model. You could fix this one up and use it alongside your Isuzu. Would be an awesome pair!

      Самый беспонтовый мотор, который устанавливали на него, в штатах их уже давно отправили на пеплавку, здесь не было дизельных, и были они под маркой :Isuzu Trooper и Acura, а был же у них неплохой дизель 2.8 литра. Сейчас у сына моего есть 86 года дизель, 2.2 литра, двухдверный, так чисто для фана.

    Hard to believe Honda (Passport) and Acura (SLX) used Isuzu SUVs for a while. And look at all the old GM parts! Old school multec fuel injectors, GM waste spark coil and module setup, even the idle motor and throttle position sensors! It’s like looking at a mid 1990’s Chevy Lumina. Only thing missing is the big Delco/Moraine ABS VI module on the brake master cylinder. Hopefully the US was the only market that was cursed with that terrible system.
