Dear Fellow Wazuans,

I need to replace my Toyota G-Touring which has served me very well for the past 5 years. I need a car with the following specifications,

1. Good ground clearance ( to handle some minimum off-road driving)
2. Max 2,000cc
3. Max Budget 1.5 M
4. Automatic Transmission


Anyone who has a car with such specs and has served you well let me know please.

I will handle all the importation paperwork.


Thanks

Boss decision is yours but i would suggest don't put 1.5m in car. Buy any standard NZE or Nissan wingroad. Rest of the money you can put somewhere as investment which can buy you another car for your wife / kids / girlfriend later.

@Gathige,2000cc good ground clearance, a Suv might do.There was a Topic on Best Suv and a comparison was made on:
Nissan X-trail
Honda Crv
Toyota R4
