Vauxhall Brava Overview
The Vauxhall Brava is classed as a pickup truck which was produced by the British automobile manufacturing company Vauxhall Motors. This vehicle was in production from 1992 to 2002. These vehicles are based on the Japanese compact pickup truck, the Isuzu Rodeo. The Brava is basically a rebadged Isuzu Rodeo. These pickup trucks are well built and are really practical, high performers that work well with a heavy load and without. They are good both on road and off road, but the problem with replacement parts, is that you can only get them at Vauxhall dealers. Well worth considering if you are after a good quality pickup truck.
