Second hand 4x4- what would you recommend?

I want to buy a second hand (up to four years old) large SUV/4x4 for £25,000. I have narrowed it down to a Lexus RX or a Land Rover Discovery. Priorities are boot space, reliability and running costs. I’ve no plans for off-roading, but would like it to be good in the snow. What would you recommend?

For reliability the Lexus RX. For weight and room but not reliability the Land Rover Discovery.
