Has anyone got a Buccaneer cruiser.  If so what do you tow it with?

    We waiting delviery and will be towing with a Jeep Grand Cherokee CRD.  Others use Discoverys, RR etc as you need a hefty tow car with a kerbweight of at least 2200kg plus especially if you have the weight upgrade to 2000kg MTPLM.

    If I bought a Buccaneer, the only tow vehicle I could afford would be a second hand trani van with half a ton of rubble in the back to get the weight up.

    The Jeep is a 2005 WK Grand Cherokee 3.0 CRD with 89k on the clock and solo I get about 32mpg.  Towing this drops down to about 22mpg on average.  It can tow up to a maximum of 3500kg and kerbweight is about 2200kg.  Click on thsi link to read reviews.
