If I had the money and wanted one I would always go to their spiritual home to buy it......the USA! 

I have seen many there that are huge, man enough for any job, but you do not see in the UK.  That is why  I would choose one where they fully understand them and they do not come in the silly dimensions of European versions! ;) ;)

I quite like the idea of a four wheel drive v8 mig clone.  8-)
Though if it had to be american, then I'd have an ex-army Hummer H1.
Simply because...

if you need one it has to be a old 60s model with big fenders and running boards and  big engine.
saw some yank thing  a couple of years ago with a mini on the back.
