Thread: 4x4 Advice

Hello all and happy NY.

I'm hoping you can help me with some advice on a 4x4 to purchase for my family, so we can go a a few adventures.

If you can help....... thanks in advance

I'm looking for something I can use as a second vehicle, but can also take us on longer trips if required and do a bit of towing with (i.e. trailer and lightweight caravan). My main goal is to hit some of the braided river beds and high country around Canterbury and the South Island and drive up to a few of the huts for camping and hunting (e.g. Rangitata).

I've done some research, and the vehicles I'm currently looking at are:

• Prado diesel 70 series
• Parado diesel 90 series
• Pajero diesel 4th Gen

My budget is around 15K, + a bit extra for any mods I might need.

Any advice or thoughts you can offer would be most welcome.
