The Isuzu Thread

These prices have no basis in reality for me anymore. We need a bigmac index for car prices. I feel like everything has skyrocketed in the last 10 years.

@FiestaST , any chance of you making a list of comparable cars/prices in the near future? I'm guessing the "city golf" Polo would be the simplest reference point.

The prices have no basis in reality anymore for anyone really.

In the last 15 years or so, I've been able to go from buying an Audi A4, to looking at a bottom of the range Polo and go "WTF, that costs HOW much?? Yeah nope, not affordable".

A more sobering reference is that in the last 15 years, a BMW 320D has gone from around R400k to near as damnit R1m.

Dude, what in the balls?!

320d has done that in the last 10 years not 15.
 
The Isuzu D-Max Steel Edition is a very beefy, and very grey upgrade to the V Cross

It’s also limited to just 300 build slots, with prices starting at £38,495 for a six-speed manual

Isuzu has launched yet another version of its D-Max pickup, dubbed the ‘Steel Edition’, which now brings the total number of limited-run models to… 900, give or take. Or three times the number of Steel Edition units that will be made.

So, how do you tell the Steel Edition apart from the other 900 special editions? Well, this one gains LED scuff plates, puddle lamps and unique tailgate badging. You also get a grey finish with black accents to make it look a tiny bit meaner.

Standard features from the V Cross trim level it's spun from are also carried over, so you’ll get LED headlights and 18in alloys which feature twig-like spokes. We mustn’t forget to mention the side steps either, since these are arguably the coolest part of any rugged pickup.

Inside, the leather upholstery and lumbar supported seats still take centre stage. Aside from the nine-inch infotainment screen, you get an extra parking sensor and reverse camera in the Steel Edition.
