Thinking of buying the 1985 Isuzu Trooper?

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 1985 Isuzu Trooper for sale by us right now. Here is the 1985 Isuzu Trooper for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.

A buyer's checks

Owners filed 3 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train and structure; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.

What the figures tell you

The engine is the 2.0L 4-cylinder, with all-wheel drive and a 4-speed manual. It runs on regular gas. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.

It is rated at 13.1 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 39 litres. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $20.31. The EPA estimates US$3,700 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Size and space

Being a van, it carries people and their bags without fuss.

When the Trooper makes sense

It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.

Drive it on your own roads

Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. If the Trooper is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. A week with the Trooper answers more than any brochure.

Running costs

The EPA estimates US$3,700 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $20.31 in fuel.

Narrowing it down

Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.

Make a request

Send a request to rent the model first, or ask us what we can do.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 1985 Isuzu Trooper from us first.
