Hi! I've just done a journey from Looe in Cornwall to Liverpool, towing my 4 berth caravan (weighing about 1000 Kg) with a 1.6 petrol towcar. The car usually averages around 40 mpg when solo, but I managed 30 mpg during this journey, which was mainly A roads and motorways. I was just curious to know if that mpg was good,…
Today I have just returned from a nice new year break. On our journey home I only saw 3 caravans being towed........ they pasted me doing at least 70 MPH ! I was plodding along at 60 MPH , agreed the conditions were good however I wish fellow tuggers would slow down .

Considering the Kodiaq is the current towcar of the year I have been very…

We tow a Pennine Pathfinder and would like to take bikes away with us. Our car is too tall for a roof mounted cycle carrier so we would like to ask if there are any rear mounting cycle carriers which are suitable for use when towing? Thanks!
Got a nearly new vw Passat. 2 Ltd 150 bhp. Had it for about 6 months now. Always had a real flat spot on the throttle . Particularly in 2nd gear when accelerating through to 3rd. Anyway put a tank full of BP Ultimate in by mistake. Lo and behold. After only a couple of miles the flat spot went. Totally. Runs like a…
I am looking for a new Tow Car and want to keep it compact. I have just come accross the figures for the VW Tiguan which seem impressive at 2200kg and 100kg nose weight. And yet these cars seem to be rarely mentioned. Anyone had any experience towing with a Tiguan
