We are having some issues confirming that our car is legal to tow our caravan. Towcar.info (where we have input our exact figures from our V5 & the caravan info) is showing it is safe to tow (at 73%). However after ringing CC they have said it's unsafe. But the figures they had are incorrect & could not be changed to show…
Hi All, We have a Bailey Motorhome & we're thinking of buying an Electric Car to tow behind our Van. Has anyone any experience of towing an EV? A friend told me that EV's cannot freewheel because it damages the electric motor. Not heard of this and I'll ask the dealer before we buy, but I'd prefer to get an unbiased…
Hi, This is my first time using the forum, so here goes... I used to tow with a ML270 which towed like a dream.

I have recently replaced my…
I'd appreciate some advice. Has anyone had experience of suspension stiffeners - spring assisters- rubber inserts into the rear suspension springs. The car sags when hitched . The tow bar limit is 75 kg and I'm using a 60 Kg noseweight. I'm hoping the inserts will stop/ limit the sag. |Do they work ? What are the problems…
