Question Crossroads..

So as the title suggests I have a dilemma..

I bought my AU wagon for towing duties on my trip. Which its done well do far..

I'm up for new rotors and also had to get some issues with my auto attended too... I was has issues with the box locking up too early and disengaging too soon.. instead of having the box dropped to do the S7 solenoid I opted to just do the S6 and check the state of the box... It wasn't good... After about 2000k the oil was black and the filter full of metal..

I hadn't planned on keeping the AU after my travels but when I need to spend 2 or 5k with labour I find it hard to justify.. on the plus I have changed everything from the air filter to the fuel pump in the AU..and its only had an easy 180k..

Now I had planned on a Terri AWD to replace the AU, so I can use it daily. Tow with it, and best of all go on the beach during my travels after some new tyres... The Terri would be fitted witha trans cooler obviously...

Discuss...

PS, van is only 1200kg and has good working mechanical brakes..

PPS, I have no service. So checking this when possible. Will try check it again tonight...
