Recommend a jeep

Newtown Warrior · 2012-04-24 08:06:55

I have recently sold 2 cars on done deal. I have c.7k to spend on a private 4x4 jeep, which will be used for driving in and out of work (10mins each way) and I will need it to tow 1 horse at weekends using a braked trailer (max 1300kg) Should I go for diesel/petrol jeep? I'm looking to keep the tax down as much as possible…

I have recently sold 2 cars on done deal. I have c.7k to spend on a private 4x4 jeep, which will be used for driving in and out of work (10mins each way) and I will need it to tow 1 horse at weekends using a braked trailer (max 1300kg)

Should I go for diesel/petrol jeep? I'm looking to keep the tax down as much as possible & i'm currently looking at around 2005 diesel grand vitra, diesel xtrail (2.2 higher tax) or a 2.0lt petrol sportage.

I have seen a 2005 commercial 2.5lt kia sorento (tax 310) with seats for sale- could this be insured as a passenger?

Any opinions/options welcome.
