What bike for a biggun?

I'm thinking of buying a full suspension bike this year, but I weigh 16 1/2 stone and I intend to get heavier. Is there any particular make/model I should be looking at or are they all pretty much the same at that price? I ride a Marin Indian Fire Trail at the moment but I'm led to believe that it's not really suitable for me.

what do you intend to use the bike for?
and why a fully?
how much do you want to spend?"Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

If its a full sus, you need one with air shocks front and rear. That way you can put more pressure in than with a coil and it will support your weight better. The new Saracen Ariels are a cheapish (comparatively) way to achieve this.

If you really want to push the boat out id go for a Marin Attack trail. Got 10/10 in mbuk.
