Large 4x4 for high mileage - suggestions?
I drive 35k miles per year (90% motorway), looking for a large 4x4 (Land Cruiser, Discovery, Grand Cherokee, etc.). This would be a car I would keep for up to 10 years. I have two options:
1. With a £25k budget, buy second-hand
2. Buy a new car on a 3-year PCP (a £50K SUV with discount price)
Depreciation, servicing and fuel costs not an issue. What would you recommend?

You can't get a PCP that allows you to drive 35k miles a year. I'd go for a 2014 Kia Sorento KX2 Nav manual. You'll get about 40mpg driving at 70 on a motorway; 35mpg at 80.

Strong diesels including impressive 2.2-litre. Comes with seven seats. New six-speed automatic. More premium feel than previous Sorento. Great value for money.
