Kiss of death for a purchase and resale in maybe 12 months?

Been offered a nice Isuzu pick up - 2015 but its Euro 5b

Ticks a lot of boxes but my gut says I'll get rinsed or stuck with it come resale?

Would you agree? Even the wife things its a bad move but I'm a bit blinded with it as it looks fab

Thoughts please oh PH Gurus

Indeed. I don't think anyone is going to be selling a petrol or electric pickup anytime soon in Europe, so I can't see there being a lack of demand for a diesel one for a while.

The Greater London ULEZ is being expanded in August 2023. This is going to cover Chessington as well as parts of Essex such as Romford, Upminster, Havering and Rainham.

Other cities have ULEZ zones or are considering them, here is the results for my Euro 4 diesel.



Basically if you live near any of these cities it is only a matter of time before you will have to pay to drive into them.

I live in the proposed greater London zone, I will get getting rid of my diesel and buying a petrol at some point in the next six months.

Thanks guys for such informative posts.

I guess its only a matter of time as the net closes in.

Even though the zones won't impact me, the increasing awareness of them, high DERV fuel costs etc will definitely increase supply to market of Euro 5 truck at the same time as a decreasing demand.

Not a good move says my head.

Thanks again
