Somebody bought a Vauxhall grille from Europe and put it on their Isuzu?

Probably just a Vauxhall Monterey grille on a Isuzu Trooper. Especially seeing the fact that it is LHD, while a Vauxhall would typically be RHD.

Was it RHD? Could it be an Isuzu Trooper that someone rebated into a Vauxhall Monterey?

Well, because they were sold the Vauxhall Frontera in the UK and this guy either imported the grill from one or it IS a Vauxhall imported under the 25-year old law.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isuzu_MU#Market
Was also sold as the Holden Frontera in Australia, and even as an Opel Frontera in the rest of Europe as well.
As I think I see the wheel on the left, guessing he bought the grill from somewhere.

Matching badges on the back, I never knew the izuzu trooper had a headlamp wiper option

Makes sense vauxhall is GM and Isuzu is GM.

Nice.
Have they badged it ‘Monterey’ on the rear or did they just do the grille.

That Chevrolet/Isuzu Trooper was the Opel/Vauxhall Monterey in Europe and the U.K.

Unlikely. It’s badged as a Vauxhall.
The car is a LHD. Vauxhalls never came with LHD with Vauxhall badges (or very rarely do), Opels however can be had LHD or RHD though.

good catch. I know of one service member who brought over a kei car as a farm use vehicle.

I think it had a Vauxhall badge on the rear too but last time I saw it was months ago

Speaking of which...
Here’s how I’d have mine..

It’s missing a Vauxhall badge on the leading edge of the bonnet.
