This will be my first 4x4 and I'm super excited.
I am wanting to use it on the farm.. mainly up and down the races, but occasionally through a bit of mud here and there.
It will also be used as a run around into town and occasionally longer trips over to the beach etc in the summer.
I would love something a bit smaller for getting in and out of gateways etc.. with an alright turning circle etc.
A tray on the back would be great too, but not a huge deal.
My number 1 thing would be reliability.. I'm not real into doing heaps of work myself and wouldn't want to be spending lots of money fixing things (nor would I be allowed).
I've got a budget of up to 8k, but would prefer to be well under that.
Thanks!

Will you need to tow anything heavyish? and how many people do you need to seat/comfortably seat?

Only be towing the odd trailer here or there with light loads and only short-ish distances.
As few as 2 seats would be fine.

Still looking guys. Not really interested in a standard x90.
Anyone selling a ute style Jimny or Vitara/Escudo?
Just needs to be reliable with life left in it..

I'll be selling a 1996 Suzuki Samurai shortly, well built for off road, WOF and REG, but a wagon not a ute. ANy interest? We have a bach in Raetihi, so delivery to central NI is not a problem! I'd be looking for close to 8K for it.
