depends on your budget. If you have £2k then id go for a 2000 upwards Terrano. With high milers, expect possible issues with sensor, otherwise the engine is reliable. Check sills, rear seat belt mounts, front cross member all are very common rust points. Anything else is your regular issue, such as MAF, rusty fuel pipes etc

good luck!

As above

If its £300-400 then go for it tho as its worth twice that if broken for parts
