Seven-seat 4WD for towing?

Asked by Maurice and Marie Flaherty

I’ve recently retired and I’m contemplating buying a caravan and a 4WD tow vehicle. We are thinking we would like the smallest, off-road, pop-top van with a full ensuite, probably an 18-footer. As with most people, money is an issue, but we believe we need a seven-seater (grandkids), automatic 4WD drive able to tow 2500kg-3000kg. On the surface the Holden Colorado 7 or the Isuzu MU-X look reasonable value.

I rate the Colorado ahead of the Isuzu but, if you can make do with something that will tow 2500kg rather than 3000kg, also look at a Hyundai Santa Fe as I give it The Tick.
