Good tow cars?

Recommended Posts

About 3 weeks ago my dads 93 misti parjero was stolen from Birkenhead Wharf while out on the boat. Police were unable to locate it so insurance has paid out. Now hes looking for another tow car for the boat. Looking to spend between 2-8k post 93.

Hes looked a few Range Rovers, Jeep Cherokees, Izuzu Big Horns, Terranos and other Pajeros.

What would you guys recommend? I heard a few bad things about jeep and range rovers but just want another persons opinion.

Cheers

Jeep's & RR are thirsty old buggers.

They would tow your house however....

Patrols / Safari's

Without the 2.8 diesel. Or a Bighorn with no badges.

For 5-6k you could get a pretty nice mid 1990's Nissan Safari 4.2L diesel.. or, up around the 8K mark and go for the turbo diesel. Great cars, will tow almost anything.

Either option will tow a boat quite nicely.

just be careful around the 4.5ton of total weight (including trailer+boat) as its the limit for a car licence
