OK well my estate is starting to bore me now, most of you will have seen it at the JAE show towing a trailer its still a good run around and not to bad on fuel around 420 the mpg gauge reckons around 29mpg

so what Japanese vehicles would you all recommend here are the vital points

Needs to be long enough to get 2.5m straight lengths inside (3m if forced into foot wells etc)

able to tow without a problem

not to juicy as it will be my daily driver

looks fairly decent

a decent insurance bracket im paying no more than £650 per year at the mo

possibly 4wd

up to a 5k budget
