Looking for a bit of advice, ive just finished uni (im 22) and before a get stuck into a proper job im taking a year or so out to work over the summer on a farm before i head to new zealand for a few months.

What would you reccomend i get thats not going to cost me a fortune to run and insure. i do a lot of shooting on weekends and need some thing ok 'on-road' and 'good-off road' and will give me reasonable mpg if there is such a 4x4.

 

My budget is £5000 max, and thought a single cab hilux, l200 or even a defender 90 would suit the bill on third party insureance.

 

Cheers, Ian

 

just my opinion but the best option for your age and insurance + economy would have to be the Jimny!

i have had land-rovers, other jap's and a navara,, but the best fun so far is easliy the Jimny.

 

they are also very cheap and easy to up-grade,,, the one below has 2" lift and 235-75-15" which gives even more ground clearance, check out youtube for some good vids,

I'd look in the FREE ads get a 4x4 under £500 try it to your needs. I've had a Frontera Sport with BF's on and it would F**king go anywhere and there very cheep at the mo, I sold that and got a Frontera LWB 2.8tdi what a tool!!! Not big enought so I sold that and got a Vauxhall Brava twin Cab ( which is for sale at the mo £1000!!!) Just bought a 110 300tdi Very Happy with it, not as good off road as my wife's 2000 range rover (Yes it has been off road) but the Defender is much bigger in the back. Good look mate everyone has there views on 4x4's make your own mind up!
