Just about to swap our car for an Isuzu D-Max.... any tips for towing with this pickup? Caravan is out of warranty, so no issue there with towing with a "commercial" vehicle... Although obviously don't want to damage it due to stiff suspension. Thinking I may need to weigh the back down a bit, to take some bounce out of…
I have an Antara SE Nav 2013 that i am thinking of upgrading to a Jeep Grand Cherokee. They seem more than capable tow cars and good family cars, so aside of MPG, (as i dont expect to get high MPG from a 3.0ltr V6), has anyone used these for towing and could provide any feedback. Thanks Mark
My new car has Mirror-link to which I can connect my Android phone. I would like to know which is the best Sat-nav to download that I can use through Mirror-link. We often use CLs that are off the the beaten track so it would have to be one that stored maps. I would be grateful for any advice on this.
It is well documented how VW tried to evade diesel emissions tests, their man Oliver Schmidt receiving a 7 year jail sentance in US, but now it appears they have been testing emissions on humans and monkeys too. Wonder what else they have lied about?
I have just changed my towcar for a 2016 VW Toureg V6 diesel which is regarded as a really good towcar and very popular with CC members. Unfortunately I cannot make my Milenco Aero towing mirrors fit to the car mirrors due to their shaped profile and very narrow gap between glass and plastic casing. Has anyone overcome…

I want to buy and have hard wired installation, a front facing dashcam after someone, unknown, misjudged their distance on turning their vehicle and left me with repair in a body shop. What make and model would those who have one already advise me to buy. Are Nextbase products say the 412G good or is there better without…
Hi guys, just a word of warning if your vehicle has a detachable tow hitch. Despite ours being on our LR Disco 4 for the past five years, it was stolen from off the vehicle whilst parked on our drive just before Christmas. Genuine replacement cost of £521, ouch expensive lesson. We always felt is was a faff taking it on…
I have been towing a small Adria around 1100kg with a SAAB 93 1.9 TiD and found it a really good tow car but as it has over 100,000 miles on the clock it’s probably time to replace it. I’m feeling a little guilty driving a diesel and thinking of going over to petrol. The Volvo V40 or XC40 auto with the T3 engine has taken…
Hi there Looking to change the car, presently have a 2010 RAV4 2.2 D-4D AWD XTR, and have been thinking about going hybrid. The new RAV4 hybrid AWD looks ok on paper for towing (apart from low nose weight of 70kg). Wondered if anyone had any experience of towing with it. Main concern is hill starts as petrol engine doesn't…
