without Trailer     28 to 36mpg   rushing   22 to 28

Towing  20 to  26 mpg    never rushed so nil input

More than happy with that taking the Comfort and extras fitted as standard.  could get an extra 10mpg from another type of vehicle but extra cost and reduction in trim ???? no thanks.

Ford Smax 2L tdci 140bhp. Caravan 1200 max. Similar mpg to other 2L diesel fords. 48 to 50 solo on long journey at 70 ish. Towed the caravan with about 1100 weight (part loaded) from Stoke to Northumberland via M6 and A69 at 55/60 mph. 32 mpg on computer but I worked actual out at about 30mph. Before the caravan I towed a 900max  folding camper, same car, to near Paris and back. Computer says 37 mpg actual 36mpg. So I will be budgeting at 30 mpg about 20p per mile (until diesel goes up again) for this caravan.

Newcastle to Benidorm and back 3000 x 20p = £600. + ferry & tolls.

Vauxhall Vectra 1.9CDTI (2006)

MPG when not towing - 45 to 52MPG

MPG when towing our bailey Ranger 470/4 - around 30mpg ( I think the max weight is around 1150kg)

We are changing next week to a 2009 X-trail so will be interesting to see how the 2.0 diesel performs (we wanted a bigger boot and kerb weight!)
