freelander td4
rav4
x-trail
forester
etc etc the list goes on

Have you not seen the mass recall of the RAV4?

BBC News - Toyota recalls 'up to 1.8m' cars

New or second hand?

The Skoda Yeti might be worth looking into.

lol mate, you might want to listen to the telephone call of those people on the phone to 911 as they hurtle to a junction at 80 mph with their throttle stuck.

They didn't make it back to the dealer unfortunately,

p.s If I see your names on domainlore we'll know you got the rav4

The pedal on the left disconnects the engine from the gearbox?

Why do you want a 4x4? If you are going to use 4x4 the freelander for a tall one or the forester for an estate car, but I really dont see the point in any of them on the list. Get a proper car or a proper 4x4.

I like the ford kuga and the nissan qashqai personally.

i would like a proper 4x4 like a disco but she wont drive it because its to big
looking for 06 onwards
she wants it for when it snows again and i want it do do some softroading

 

[retired_member32]

yes i would probably go for the qashqai or it's big brother the murano ,or if your not a badge lover kia have some decent 4x4's now

I've gotta read up on the kia. Their offering 7 year warranty now which is tempting.
