Border has been trading for more than 22 years and has sites in Melrose, Dumfries and Carlisle. Visitors to the garage in Melrose, situated in St Boswells, will now be able to test drive the Isuzu D-Max, as well as benefit from its dedicated parts and servicing facilities.
The Isuzu D-Max is available in three body styles – single, extended and double cab – with prices starting from £14,499 (CVOTR) for the entry-level single cab 4×2 rising to £21,999 (CVOTR) for the range-topping Isuzu D-Max Utah Auto.
The D-Max is fitted with a 2.5-litre twin-turbo diesel engine and is able to tow 3.5 tonnes while still returning fuel economy of 38.2mpg, according to Isuzu. D-Max is available with a six-speed manual or five-speed automatic transmission.
Isuzu has sold more than 4,500 units of the D-Max pick-up since going on sale in August 2012.
‘We’re committed to delivering outstanding customer care from our extensive range of sales and aftersales facilities,’ commented Archie MacLean, dealer principal for Border.
‘Many of our customers have been with us from day one and they say it is the warm, friendly atmosphere and first-class service that makes them return to Border. We’re confident that the Isuzu D-Max will be a hit with tradespeople and recreational users throughout the rugged terrain of the Scottish Borders.’
William Brown, general manager of Isuzu UK, added: ‘We’re delighted to have Border as part of the Isuzu network. They join a little over a year after the launch of the Isuzu D-Max, a pick-up that raises the bar for refinement, performance and efficiency in the sector. Backed by Isuzu’s pioneering, five-year / 125,000-mile warranty, we believe the pick-up will appeal to a broad range of buyers who visit the showroom in St Boswells.’
