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.

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.

Main concern is hill starts as petrol engine doesn't…

As the title suggests - can't seem to find the list of tow cars which have been reviewed by club members Anyone know where to look on the club web site please?
Liking the look of this as a towcar. Just needs the nose weight limits confirming. Some kerb weight information is available as are some towing weights.
