I've sold the Audi this weekend and now need a replacement. The replacement needs to be a workhorse with towing capability.
I've generally been looking at Nissan Navara but as it has to double as the family car I've been loking at the Aventura spec (leather, auto, sat nav, etc). I'm looking up to 40,000 miles and the asking prices seem to start at £12k +VAT
However, when looking at other options Land Rover Disco, etc, I came across a 2005/05 cubanite M270CDi Special Edition with 36,000 miles. It hasn't got comand or 7 seater option but otherwise the spec is ok.

It's with a fairly local trader and he is asking £12,795.
Any thoughts on the value bearing in mind that all car sales are down, especially 4x4 vehicles.
Anything I should be looking out for when I go to view?
Have test driven a similar one a few months ago and aside from the general heavy feel I found the gas pedal was very heavily sprung and even maintaining a constant speed required a strong right foot. Are they all like that?
