there is a prado on a car yard in levin for 8k, but good luck finding a 7 seater that isn't an auto. you'll probably have to buy an auto then converted using a box from a vehicle that shares similar components.

Very few options since you said "manual"
RARE Bighorn Manual

OR a big Nissan will tow well/better

I used to own a 3.1 Bighorn and have now moved to a Safari. For towing the Safari beats the Bighorn hands down (We regularly tow 2+ton). In the bighorn you could feel the trailer pushing the back end round and felt every bump in the safari you just don't feel them. Slid on some ice on Saturday in the Safari with 1.5-2 ton of wet wood in the trailer (was going a wee bit fast into a corner), the safari corrected and I didn't release the trailer was still moving sideways until I saw it in the mirror
