"The Chevrolet Suburban is a full-size SUV from Chevrolet and the name started in 1934 for the 1935 U.S. model year, making it the longest continuously used automobile nameplate in production. It has traditionally been one of General Motors' most profitable vehicles. The 1935 first generation Carryall Suburban was one of the first production all-metal bodied station wagons. It now comes with three engine options: a 5.3 litre V8, 6.2 litre V8 or a 3.0 litre Inline-6 turbo diesel. The GMT400-based Suburbans were introduced in December 1991 for the 1992 model year. The similar pickup truck models had switched to the newer platforms in the 1988 model year. Both 2WD and 4WD models, designated ‘C’ and ‘K’, were offered, as well as half ton and three-quarter ton (‘1500’ and ‘2500’) models. Trim options included a base-level version, the LS, and the LT. Interior seating arrangements allowed for either bucket or bench seating in the first row and optional third row bench. The vehicle could be configured from two to nine passenger seating. Transmissions included the 4L60 four-speed automatic in the 1500 series, and the heavier duty 4L80 four-speed automatic in the 2500.
Originally registered on 1st September 2002 this Chevrolet has only had the one keeper in the UK and has been used sparingly having covered less than 4,000 miles per year. These well built, robust American SUV’s often have a hard life, however, this example is an exception, it is in very good order throughout. These are great vehicles to drive, with ample room in the cockpit area and in the rear for the passengers. The 5.3 litre petrol engine operates smoothly and quietly and offers brisk performance, particularly considering the size of a Suburban. The black coachwork is in very good order and the beige leather interior shows no significant signs of wear. We are advised this four-wheel-drive Chevrolet drives with no known faults and is supplied with a V5C registration document and will be presented for an MoT test prior to the auction. An extremely practical family SUV with substantial interior space for people and luggage. Consigned by Stewart Banks
