I need a small 4WD for use at home, mainly for pulling my mower out of holes/ditches/pond when I try to mow "just those last few inches near the edge ...." :-)

Want something quite small physically as some of the gates are a bit narrow .. the Mistral I was using is just awkward to get to places ... just need names/models of some is all so I can look them up on TradeMe.

thanks!

A small Suzuki? That'd be my pick.

Not sure what is out there, or your budget.

I had a mighty Suzuki SJ410 which was just awesome considering the size of it. Went from a V8 powered hilux to the little 410 and got in to far more exciting places with the zuk then I did with the hilux.

If you want to go a little different.

Mahindra Thar Di or Mahindra Thar CRDe

An ATV like Ranger from Polaris

But a Suzuki is probably your best option. Have a look at Suzuki's Farm worker range of 4wds

I would go for something like this

Hmmm ... I giant poop machine :-)

The litle Suzukis look a good bet, just got to find a cheap one with enough life left for what I want. I'd love a Mahindra, but to much for the job needed .. if they could be road legal I'd get one in a heart beat!

Thanks!
