Default P100, any good?

As above really, I know nothing about them, just need a workhorse and there is one on autotrader for 575 that the bodywork is a bit battered

TBH i dont even know what engine is in them apart from the fact it is a turbo diesel, big enough to pull a 205 on a twin axel trailer?

Good work horse but getting a bit old now, can you not go for something newer?

oooh, looks nice, this one will be the 1.8td then, the big question though, will it pull a 205 on a twin axle trailer?
