Buying New What would you buy and why

Juddian:
I too would be very interested in how the Japanese motors are holding up, no doubt much sniggering at the back much the same as they did when the bikes and the cars first arrived, but no bugger’s sniggering now.

I know its an old thread but the Japanese stuff holds up extremely well they just have no comfort.
Isuzu is very reliable if looked after by people that know what they are doing, but like all jap trucks they ride terrible.

Parts are extremely cheap, if i was putting a driver in a truck id go down that path
