Fun per dollar, I'd go a postie bike.

There really is only one real fair dinkum budget Real 4WD and that is a Zook;)
Second dont laugh id look at a Lada ;)

Zook for sure :) The 3cyl one if it's to be a toy !!

I used to own an F-10 diahatsu. Great fun fourby. Drove it like I stole it and tackled everything with it. Had a mate with the F-50 diesel version and grp style rear roof. Really capable and tough vehicles.

Ah, yes.
Good choice. You can improve it no end.

Hitting a tree would improve it,,,:angel:

Upkeep would be a pain though if somehting on that Merc donk breaks.
Ssangyong never made 'pretty' cars. But that mod job is pure evil.
