Out of pure curiosity, being about to start 2018 towing with a 2 litre petrol tug, I'm interested to know what mpg I might expect. Last time I towed with a 2 litre petrol was a RAV4 in 2004, with about 1100kg on the back, getting 25.2mpg over just over 1700 miles and 41 solo over around 900 miles. Those figures were…
