Hi,

We've towed with a 300 Series Tdi, and it was disappointing. We have a Bailey Pagent, weighing in around 1800kg, plus 3 kids, bike rack etc.

Often on steep hills a Mondeo would hurtle past us...on the Motorways it was often not possible to pass lorries in any kind of headwind.

The best advice is just relax into it, 'cos it won't go any faster!! And remember to look smug. like you just wann drive that speed for a bit. According to this forum we're all psycopathic speed freaks overcome by our own self-esteem.

One life, live it slowly!!

Oh Dear

It's a public forum........................And I'm going Nowhere !

Its all been said before....................

If you want to play in fields like a farmer in your wellies Buy a Land Rover

If you want a comfortable all wheel drive car to tow your caravan Buy Japanese !

Hey you guys I tow with the 300tdi (the Muppet) its an auto and it pulls my 1500kg van all over the place at 60 on motorways no problems at all on the longer hills that you find on A & B roads it doesn't get into top gear but hey it gets there and in safety and comfort

The Head Gasket problem is due to lack of maintenance if the drivers looked after their vehicles better even opening the bonnet now and again they would notice that the coolant level has gone down and then they would either look for the leak or take it to a garage to be sorted the problem is due to the P gasket which is behind the water pump not a hard job but a hell of a lot cheaper than a new head
