The Jeep Grand’s appeal lies in its sensible (read: not too hulking) size, great towing credentials and decent blend of on- and off-road ability.

Classic 4x4: 1956 Series 1 107 Land Rover Station Wagon

The GLA250 4 Matic is a compact off-roader that’s best suited to a couple rather than a family, but for suburban duties it does a fine job.

Nissan X-Trail TS Diesel review
If you’re happy to change gears yourself then the latest X-Trail is a thoughtful, well specified medium SUV that’s also impressively frugal.
