that's a tricky one I think, possibly a SVR, cayenne turbo or something?
This, the actual usage case for these things. On the smallest wheels that fit over the discs.I used to take my MX5 on the smaller wheels on some very broken roads and lanes but it got beached more than once

Not really.
You want something with small-ish wheels and decent sidewall height. Good suspension travel and not too low. But it has to be refined enough as a daily driver? And fun?
That’s a tricky combination!
Some kind of fast 4x4 seems the obvious choice.
A forester turbo is a great shout but I wouldn’t be spending that kind of money on one.
How about an Evo 5 or 6? They have decent wheel travel and you can easily get bash plates off the shelf for diff and sump.

I’m currently staying at the in laws in Hungary and there are some lovely driving roads interspersed with really rough and rutted tarmac.
Given a budget of 50k (sadly no 911 Dakar in budget) what would you buy for all round duties plus fun? No commuting or school runs required.
