The 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee range of configurations is currently priced from $12,950.
Our most recent review of the 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee resulted in a score of 6.6 out of 10 for that particular example.
Carsguide Senior Journalist Laura Berry had this to say at the time: A Jeep Cherokee is not the default SUV choice like a Mazda or Toyota is for Australians, and there are those weird quirks, but buyers will be rewarded by an SUV which not only looks unique but is enjoyable to drive with its V6 engine and comfortable ride. Plus there’s the good value this 75th Anniversary Edition brings.

The 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee carries a braked towing capacity of up to 2268 Kg, but check to ensure this applies to the configuration you're considering.
You haven't given us the weight of the caravan you want to tow, which goes a long way to determining the best car for you. We'll err on the side of caution and go for cars with a towing capacity of at least 2500 kg that fall within your budget. It's always best to go for the latest model you can afford, which means around 2103 in your case. I'm guessing you're over the Pathfinder given your experience with the holed piston in your current car, but the Nissan is an option for you. So too are the Jeep Grand Cherokee and the Mitsubishi Pajero, although the Pajero's rear suspension is prone to sagging when heavily loaded and I would rule that out on that basis. If you can stretch your budget a little you could consider the Landrover Discovery 4, which does everything you want well, but is the most expensive of this bunch. For me the pick of the bunch for me is the Toyota Prado, for performance, economy, and reliability. The only issue for you could be that the Prado's towing rating is 2500 kg, the lowest of the cars we mention here.

There are plenty of SUV choices to look at, such as a Toyota Prado or Jeep Grand Cherokee. Both should serve your needs well.

I could fill Roadside Assist for weeks with Jeep complaints, despite the efforts of managing director Pat Dougherty to get on top of things. They range from the rear suspension in the Grand Cherokee to electrical failures and general quality glitches, and include most Jeep models.
