Get a petrol A4 quattro. I'd say you could get anything from 00-upwards within your budget. The petrol ones don't go for the same stupid money as the diesels.

Yea but do you not have to drive the bag out of a petrol jeep to get it to move,diesel would be alot better with the low down torque.

Id look out for a 525i e34 touring If your going to be towing about a ton. I use my e30 325i touring for towing 750 kgs about twice a month and tow 1 ton about once a month but its more like every weekend lately with m42 owners cracking their sumps. 4WD isnt really necessary Ive seldom got stuck in 5 years towing into and out of wet fields and Ive got an open diff. The times i have got stuck so has everyone else so its just a case of waiting your turn behind the tractor. Also I think self leveling rear suspension was standard on e34 tourings and its brilliant on my e30 touring.

I thought a tow car had to be 4WD? by law or was that only a rumour as i can't find anything that says it's so
