I've had l200s for the last 16 years, you should only buy the original or current shapes, the rather rounded one in between was a bit crap. The current model hasn't missed a beat in 3 years and its only real rival is the VW which costs a fortune. I had a Ford Ranger for a few weeks when a muppet hit my l200, great reversing camera but bugger all else to recommend it. Expect about 30mpg, 25 in traffic, 40 is very boring but just about achievable. Navarras have the turning circle of the QE2 and fall apart, Isuzus are unbreakable tractors with the same degree of comfort.
