Hi I have a Mardon Classic 550/5 I have had it for a few years and love the Van, My first tow car was a Saab 9000, okay but laking in power, Bought a 530 BMW, terrrible, the van wagged me all the way up the M5 even with stabiliser so we got a good offer on a 1996 4.0 Grand Cherokee. Fantastic car had it 2 years abused it and it has never failed plus pulls like a train. Looking for new car though as the Jeep is getting on. Choices are 4.7 mk2 Grand Cherokee, Toureg diesel 3.0 ( not allowed the v10) or a XC90 any advice and thanks in advance.

Love both the jeep and the Toureg, looked at both (New) before buying a new Disco 3, thought the mpg would be better in the L.R ,and is ,The jeep c.d.i. is a great tug and hold their value quite well and the Toureg, well, it looks like a Golf on steroids but it can pull a jumbo jet if you happen to have one!!!! regards S/C

If I had the money to go and buy a Brand New Toureg I would go out and buy a Toyota Landcruiser Amazon.
