Foggy swaps two wheels for four with Isuzu D-Max XTR
Foggy has collected the keys to his new Isuzu D-Max XTR from Walton Summit Truck Centre in Lancashire.
Featuring a custom designed body kit, a sophisticated and sporty interior, performance brakes and a bespoke Pedders suspension arrangement, the XTR is the perfect fit for Carl.
With its energetic appearance and enhanced off-road capabilities, the Isuzu D-Max XTR complements Carl’s action-packed lifestyle.
In terms of performance, XTR is equipped with a bespoke Pedders suspension and brake system making it extremely comfortable on the road and capable in the extreme off-road. Vented and slotted front brake discs offer excellent heat dissipation and work in combination with the Kevlar ceramic front brake pads for remarkable braking performance. The 17-inch satin black alloy wheels have a heavy duty, rigid design and are fitted with Pirelli Scorpion All-Terrain Plus tyres that provide traction in challenging conditions.
XTR offers substantial kerb appeal with a dramatic front bumper guard, bonnet protector and headlight frames. Imposing wheel arch extensions contribute to XTR’s assertive stance and the angular bar framework on the XTR side steps are designed to prevent rocks and stones damaging the bodywork. To personalise his truck, Carl has chosen an optional XTR Style Pack, consisting of Black Mountain Top Roller Cover, Black Sports Bars and Black Roof Bars.
Inside the cab, Carl will be travelling in style as the D-shaped sports steering wheel and XTR heated front sports seats are trimmed in leather and suede with contrast green overstitching. The interior of this six-speed automatic XTR is packed with convenient equipment, including a 7-inch Multifunction Colour Touchscreen, Bluetooth, Front & Rear USB Ports and a Reversing Camera. For even more visibility, Carl has also opted for a Front Camera.
Carl collected his XTR from the family-run Walton Summit Truck Centre near Preston in Lancashire and said: “I live for the outdoors, so the XTR suits me down to the ground. Its bursting with character and stands out from a crowd, which is great in an age where cars are increasingly looking the same. I can’t wait to take it off-road.”
Nigel Perplus, Director at Walton Summit Truck Centre (pictured with Carl) added: “Foggy is a motorcycle racing legend so XTR is clearly the perfect truck for him.”
William Brown, Managing Director at Isuzu UK, commented: “Having a world champion superbike rider choose the XTR speaks volumes. It has been engineered to the highest standards and has been built with true motoring enthusiasts like Carl in mind.”
