can anyone recommend a compact SUV?

I might look at those thanks OZCOBRA. Saw one this morning and they look alright.

The towing will literally only be a handful of times most likely during the rego process as i am doing everything on the car my self it doesnt need to be moved around to mechanics, trimmers, paint shops etc. It wont be a regular thing once the cobra is finished as i intend it to be a road driven car. Most towing will be box trailer to the tip every now and again, that sort of stuff.

I think they will all handle short towing trips provided im not in a hurry.

There are a few good Murano buys around and they present value for money. I have read some good reviews on forums about them. The RAV4 V6 would also be alright at towing and Toyota have a good reputation.

At the end of the day a big powerful car is needed for towing, but i am hoping with the small amount i will do that i will get away with using this car i buy for my wife as my next car will most likely be small and economical for lots of work kms.

Thanks for all the opinions, you have all provided some good comments.
