kerbweight approx 1300kg with a 1300kg towing limit.

Depends how heavy your van is and the gross train weight figure. What can the car tow once you have loaded your holiday stuff into it?

Rubbish - I had one too, took the back seats out & used it for hauling my catch (fish boxes of crabs & scallops) off the beach. Drove it right up the grassy bank & onto the road ! If you run out of kitchen foil they're very useful there too as the door panels are about the same thickness !

Mrs Z had one too when she was in her 20s & loved it. They were cheap to buy cheap to run, comfy to sit in & have bags of character.

Btw they don't topple over very easily either - well not unless you get your shoulder on & give them a right good shove

Its just within the car's legal limit but bit marginal on power, I'd go for the 2litre version if you can afford it.

Saying you don't like French cars is like saying you don't like British cars & failing to understand the differences between Hondas, Toyotas & Nissans.

A little off topic I know, but I can do without unfunny xenophobic statements like that.

I think was Samuel Johnson who wrote: "Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel"
