We tow our Swift Astbury caravan (Swift Major 4)with a diesel Mitsubishi outlander and need to change the car. Has anyone experience of towing a similar caravan with an outlander Phev?
I know this subject has come up quite a few times before, but I have a slightly different problem which I would appreciate your views on, that is, my caravan tow car rear brakes and discs are being worn out very quickly - I’m having to replace them every 6 to 7 k miles. I have had to replace rear pads and discs 3 times…
Hi Folks, My tow car has an electrically retractable (not detachable) tow-hitch and stows the tow ball under the car where it is exposed to rain, salty road spray etc. Consequently it gets rusty! I tried putting a cover over the tow ball but as the hitch is inverted under the car this just fills up with water. Having spent…
Hi, I am considering changing my tow car and among the candidate vehicles I am looking at is a new (or very new) Toyota Landcruiser (UK spec). I can see that it hasn't reviewed well in some of the towcar reviews online, but I was wondering if anyone who has one of these vehicles and tows a caravan would like to comment on…

We're moving from the world of motorhoming to caravanning and are getting a caravan with 1350kg MTPLM and need to get a suitable tow car that I can also drive everyday (were a family of 3 so it doesn't have to be huge). We (naively) thought we could find…

The car broke loose from the frame. The crash bar pulled…

What is the Club's position on this announcement? It sounds the death knell for towing anything like a decent size caravan unless reasonably priced electric cars capable of towing over 200 miles without recharge suddenly appear, and the recharging infrastructure expands rapidly. Given the incompetence of most politicians…
Hi everone, just wondered if anyone has experience of the Mazda CX-60 Homura, specifically the diesel, not Hybrid, as a tow car. We currently have a Hyundai Santa Fe 2015 which is manual & tow a Swift Elegance 580. Very pleased with current car & have been to Germany Austria this year plus it's only done 60,000 miles so…
