Possibly the fact they have not been made for umpteen years and Ssangyong no longer, so no back up, makes them a good buy?

Are they advertised as 3500kg?B i l has bought one, the log book came with 2700kg towing weight. The log book has gone back with a warning that the pickup will follow it if the new weight isn't 3500kg.
There are a lot of log books going back.
The problem of DVLA not giving correct tow weights is not restricted to these. My X3 log book went back twice.B i l has bought one, the log book came with 2700kg towing weight. The log book has gone back with a warning that the pickup will follow it if the new weight isn't 3500kg.

I have no real-world experience whatsoever, apart from having my eyes melt when I see one on the road. SsangYong, purveyors of the fuggliest vehicles of the 21st century.
I would change my wife rather than the car if she had an attitude like that!Cheap ain't cheap if the wife refuses to drive it and will no longer accept your advances.
Buy a second hand Landcruiser or something.
The merc bits were only licence built copies!We had many through the garage I worked in, and head problems were common, we had to take the head off before ordering any parts, so we knew which type we had, engine numbers meant nothing. Had a Kango sieze its low mileage engine in Exeter, and then put a rod out of the (dealer fitted) replacement on the way back!I ran a Korando & Musso (both early Sprinter engines)for eight years & literally the only trouble I had with the Korean bits was the handbrake which would never work well when pointing uphill, (but was fine downhill!).
The Mercedes bits however :- two head gaskets, broken variator on the injection pump, resulting in a snapped timing chain & terminal engine damage. Then with the replacement engine, on which I had rebuilt the head with a reskim & shimmed pre chambers etc etc, repaid me a year later by pushing no3 rod through the side of the block.
