Used Land Rover Defender 1990 - 2016 review

Like the Defender, the Jeep Wrangler is renowned for being better to drive in the mucky stuff than down paved roads. It has a strong diesel engine, is reliabile and has a sturdy construction. However, it's let down by high running costs, poor steering and lacks comfort.

You could also consider a Toyota Land Cruiser. It's practical, built to last and is known for its supreme reliability. Its four-cylinder engine can feel a little underpowered, though.
