we use a land rover 110 200 tdi, not the fastest but its not bad. we have towed a land rover 101 behind it 246miles so it pulls the jimny quite easily. we also have a v8 disco 2 (only used for towing) really really good tow car if you can afford the petrol. ideally for me i'd get a td5 110 or disco 2.

I've been looking with a much smaller budget and have been considering the Vauxhall Frontera Lwb.

I have not been in one but I quite like them.

The Frontera owners group looks quite good too. Not a patch on here but nothing else is!

IMHO there's much better options for the budget, Cherokee, early maverick/terrano, leggy trooper.

Black Jimny's don't get stuck!
