Yeah... true that! I forgot that they were still makin' them for sale outside USA. In fact, weren't the 1`GEN Troops available up until like the mid-late 90's, right? and with diesels too IIRC ?


Yup, in the UK the 1st GEN Trooper was made til 1992. They had two length chassis Troopers, the SWB and LWB like we got here in the USA. Only thing different was their SWB Trooper models were the same as our rare 89 model Trooper RS. The LWB model is no different in that it's a 4 door Trooper. So, if you buy any 1st GEN SWB Trooper in the UK it will be identical to our 89 Trooper RS. A lot more common in the UK huh? Oh, and of course they had a diesel engine option throughout the whole generation of the 1st GEN Trooper (all years 87-92). Halfway through 92 they changed to the newer body style that you all see as our 92-97 Trooper. Their models are also all RHD of course. I always think it's just not fair that we didn't get all those great diesel engines as options in our Troopers sold here. Just not fair! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/angry.gif" alt="" />
