Hi, I was wondering, does anybody tow with a Hyundai Santa Fe. I noticed that it has a full sized spare wheel which seems to be rare these days. I wondered what you think of it as a tow car, what sort of fuel economy can you expect both towing and solo. Any thought would be much appreciated. Thanks
Hi Everyone, We've just purchased a caravan which is going on a seasonal pitch next week until October. We don't currently have a car with a tow bar so have used the services of a towing company to move it for us. We are now looking to buy a new car so we can start towing again ourselves later in the year. I'm struggling…
Just changed my car to a BMW X3, it is fitted with a BMW detachable tow bar but there is nowhere to clip the breakaway cable, or indeed anywhere to bolt either a plate or eye. A policeman acquaintance has told me it is illegal to put the breakaway cable around the tow ball. Advise please
I have noticed that some car manufacturers give two kerb weights. One with the car empty. One with the car, fluids, 90% fuel and 75Kg driver. Which should be used when looking for an 85% match?
Hi All, I'm close to buying a 2016 Kia Sportage 2.0 CRDi KX-3 Auto. Kerbweight etc is fine, and it has Euro 6 Specification and therefore satisfies my beloved mayor's criteria.

The time has come for me to buy a new used tow car. My budget is small < £3000. Ideally, I would like to buy a SO1.9 with a tow bar already on - but they are quite scarce. Is it straightforward to have a tow bar fitted? I recall reading somewhere that it was not. Also, how much might it cost?
Can anyone recommend an A frame for towing a Toyota Aygo behind our Auto Trail
Hi all, since new my removable tow bar on my XC60 has had a small amount of play in it , on speaking to another XC60 owner about his tow bar lock I noticed his tow bar had no play in it whatsoever. Does anyone else had a similar tow bar and is there any movement in it. Thanks Alan
I'm considering the option of towing a car with my Motorhome. My wife is a little dubious though and despite my best efforts, she's yet to be persuaded. She had a bad towing experience as a child when her Dad's caravan came off on the motorway, I've got a Rapido 665F and wondered how I could find out the maximum sized…
It's time to change the tow car, 1900Kg of van needs something substantial. So, flicking through the various car reviews you can't help but notice that the reviewer was provided with the test car with a high specification. In the opinion of the reviewer (who just happens to have the air suspension option fitted to the test…
