Used Suv Recommendations........

[Kujah]

I'm new to Thailand and am looking to buy a used 4WD, ABS, automatic, petrol SUV for less than 800K baht. I was looking at the Honda CRV but I have nothing to compare it to. Can anyone recommend SUVs with good performance and klm/liter ratings? Also, that are more for the do-it-yourself and has readily available replacement parts.

Thanx for your inputs

Similar models to the CRV are the Ford Escape and the Mazda Tribute. People also seem to like the Toyota Fortuner etc. Lots of threads about those...

Is there a car theft problem in Thailand? If so, is the theft problem more in certain areas / cities in particular? Would you know the average cost of car insurance? Are there a lot of fender-bender accidents and do the insurance companies readily honor their policies when clients summit their claims?
