Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

market has been fairly innundated with new examples. John Lewis takes a look...

There has a been a frenzied amount of activity in the four-wheel drive/pickup sector over the past year.

Land Rover has new Discovery and Freelander Commercials, while Citroen has started marketing a van version of its CCrosser.And having barely registered a presence in the UK light commercial market. SsangYong has started promoting van versions of its Kyron and Rex-ton cars.

Iveco is wading into the 4x4 utility market with the Massif ... and all this before we even start talking about the newly 4x4 version of Transit and the Daily 4x4 (p16). The pickup sector has also played host to the launch of Nissan's NP300, and minor revisions to Mazda's BT-50.

For the moment, pickup sales are unlikely to set the world on fire, but that means if you've got the funds to acquire one you should be able to negotiate a keen deal.
