Launched in late 2013 Isuzu has joined the party with its 7 seat version of the successful and popular D Max. Oddly named the Isuzu MU-X. I really don’t know where they get the name from but the MU-X is built on the same platform as the D Max Ute with suspension improvements and a heap of other design features to produce quite a pleasing 7 seat family 4WD.
The Isuzu MU-X is well proportioned, follows the D Max styling and looks smaller than it actually is. Don’t however let its good looks fool you it’s a true 4WD.
Rob Fraser – General dogsbody & Director
Rob is the founder of the business. He constantly mutters something about way too many red wines one evening being to blame.
Often known for taking the 4WD in the driveway over the sports car, he has travelled pretty much everywhere in Australia and when he is bored goes for a drive.
He first learned to drive on the farm in a left hand drive WW11 Jeep when he was 11, and was hooked on 4WDriving way back then. In addition to 4WD he is an avid motoring enthusiast and has maintained a strong interest in the industry ever since his teens. He has owned way too many cars in his time as well.
Having previously lived at the top of corporate life he retired in 2000 and hasn’t put a suit and tie on since. Cars are his passion so why not have a business doing what you love he figures.
He has towed either a caravan or camper trailer to most parts of Australia, has run guided tours for camper trailers’ and instructed drivers in off road towing.
The new Nissan V6 turbo-diesel has a major performance advantage over its four cylinder turbo-diesel rivals, with no appreciable fuel consumption penalty all stumps across Australia should start to quiver as this 3.0-litre engine produces a class-leading 170 kW power and 550 Nm torque from a low 1750 rpm.
