Are the Australian and New Zealand versions very different in trim and mechanics? Maybe the styling was different as I guess the New Zealand version was closer to original Isuzu. In addition, Isuzu was also sold in New Zealand simultaneously Rodeo and apparently through a own Isuzu dealers. What was it called in New Zealand? Faster, Rodeo or KB?

I'm not sure how different they would be to Aussie ones. AFAIK ALL Australian sold Rodeos (& Jackaroos) were full imports from Isuzu Japan. On that basis it could be argued that the Aussie ones are closer to original Isuzu spec. Dr Terry
