Mr Preston, this is the kinda thing you'd be looking at. Forget the milleage its a Nissan underneath rebadged as a Ford, and I noticed that the Terrano's seem for some bizzare reason to fetch more money than the Mavericks do..

This one has a few more toys on it than ours does.

Anyways that should give you an idea of what you are looking at. Watch for rust around the rear seatbelt mounts as ours failed its MOT on that and had to have some welding done and as you'd expect for a big old lump if you drive it hard it drinks diesel, it also doest return very good MPG around town. Low 30's is probably best you'll get, but it can get a shift on and will sit a 90mph quite comfortably on the Motorway.

Oh and when in 2WD mode it only drives the rear axle, which means power slidding around roudabouts in the wet is fun, especially with some more off road biased tyres on it, dont ask me how I know this though
