There are a couple of much over looked Chevy Blazer late models on eBay at the moment one on Autogas. I have to say (STig) I have had Range Rovers and I don't like, everytime you look at the pigs something falls off and it eventually although being only 12 years old and the body looked great failed the MoT for being riddled with rust, I would never touch one ever again. My V6 Blazer does 170miles on £24 of Autogas towing the absolutely brilliant wheels under Tri-Axle Brian James trailer (man what a piece of kit that is) with a heavy Chevy on the back. It is superbly comfortable as a road runnerabout and very practical for lugging gear around with over 6ft area in the back with seats down also makes a nice hotel for the night and does over 200 miles on £24 tank ful of Autogas without trailer and is honestly the best tow vehicle I have ever owned. Yes the trim level is this and that agreed and the build quality is not German or indeed Japanese but the V6 will pull from 500rpm in 5th gear and they are very good value and for under 4k for an Autogas converted 2001 model with under 50,000 on the clock you cannot go wrong.
