hi there, I'm about to collect a Skoda superb and plan to get a towbar fitted. I've discovered on the web that some Skoda's are unsuitable and illegal to fit a towbar, so I've took a picture of the vin plate inside the bottom at the driver's door. It does show the gross train weight. Can anybody confirm this car is good to…
I tow my Compass Kensington with a Ford Kuga Mk2. To enable the towing electrics (Reverse and Fog lights) to work correctly I have removed the nearside bulbs due to Kuga not able to handle 2 x reverse and 2 x foglights on the caravan. Question is can anyone recommend a set of LED's that will work correctly. I have looked…
I have just replaced my 2019 3.2 Ranger Wildtrak for a brand new one. I have seen good towing reviews for the new smaller engine so I hope i wont be disappointed by it
Hi, I used to caravan as a child with my parents and then myself for a while as a young adult but not for about 30 years. Obviously so much has changed in that time! My hubby and I are about to try and sort a caravan so that we can get back to it and therefore need to get my Škoda Superb estate fitted with a tow bar.…
I have recently bought a Hyundai Tucson Ultimate Hybrid automatic, not the plug-in version, with a 1600cc engine. We had intended to stop caravanning but have since had a change of heart. Now, according to the VIN plate my 1,300kg 2 berth caravan is within the acceptable towing weight. Not quite the 80% that CAMC…
Per the title, does anyone out there tow with a Discovery Sport Petrol Plug In Hybrid ? If so, what do you tow how does it tow? Is there anything that I should be looking out for ? Appreciate your responses.

Contacted installer and they advised to remove one lamp - and this worked. Now replaced the 21W lamps with 10W ones so same electrical…
Having towed a caravan for many years, 5 years ago we switched to the dark side and bought a motorhome! Missing the flexibility of a caravan and car, we are now switching back and in a few months time we are taking delivery of a Coachman Laser (MTPLM 1734kg), Having to now get a suitable tow car, I am looking at a…
Hi, I’m a new member and new to caravans, so looking for a spot of advice. I’ll be towing my caravan with a Vauxhall Movano. According to the VIN plate this vehicle has a MAM of 3,500kg and a gross train weight of 6,000kg. The caravan is well within the towing limits. My simple mind interprets this to mean that I can fully…
Just wanted to ask if any experienced tower made a decision to tow heavier than the 85% novice recommendation after years of towing within it? I've just bought a slightly bigger caravan and need to change my tow car for other reasons. My wife does not want to drive a "big car" as this will be her daily drive. So I'm just…
