We have a Mercedes 320 TE (last of the old shape - L Reg) which is a fantastic car in every way, so powerful.  We had it converted to LPG and now it is cheaper to run than my little BMW tourer.  I can't recommend these cars enough, a dream to drive, not expensive to buy, and if you get a good one it is almost like owning a new car - we have leather, air con, walnut, shiny paintwork, and all for less than £2,500 (plus the conversion of course)  This is the third  Mercedes estate we have had, last were 230TEs and we have kept each one for five/eight years.

we have been using a Vauxhall Omega 2.2 auto which towed like a dream, just got a new hyundai Tucson, can't say how this tows yet as according to the manual you can't tow until the vehicle has done 1000 miles, will have to wait a few weeks yet.
