The Suzukis have always been quite capable and annoy the LR's for this fact.
Heres a left field suggestion for you.....Lada Niva, dont laugh, very, very good off road.
Too expensive, and over valued.
Dealer who had the auto Pinin had 52 Range Rovers for sale, yes fifty two, and he was saying how bad the chassis defenders and discoveries are for rot, and he often sends early 2000 models to auction that he has no chance of getting an MOT/not cost viable to repair, due to chassis rot.
He was saying a lot of the LR90's on the road shouldn't be, bodged up, silly inflated prices.

Doubt you could get a defender for a decent price.
Plus even if you did it would probably be stolen in a week.
They are in high demand.
Is your glass half-empty, or do you live in the ghetto? Mind you, I agree re your first point - they're silly money now.
I'm sure the little known Lada is probably a good one too
Jeep Cherokee are proper 4x4. There is a 2.4 or 3.7 v6. Can pick a under 100k model for 2-3k. Here are 2.

As a couple of others have said a Freelander sounds perfect for you? Get the old petrol rover engine with a head gasket change, done.
Amazingly it's even Euro 5 https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-review/lada/niva
£6,500 - I don't need one but I'm tempted as a laugh.
