[willmagrath]

Hi cant decide what to recommend my mum for a small ish awd/4x4 for relatively small money, any ideas??

[willmagrath]

thinking maybe a landrover freelander td4 or a subaru legacy maybe

Subaru Forester (non Turbo) with winter tyres, should get 2005/06 with that kind of budget. Tough, reliable and very talented

What does she want to tow?

it'll only be used to tow a small boat
