Hi folks,
Apologies in advance for yet another towing question!
We have decided to get a caravan, 4 berth and have been advised our car is too tiny to tow which doesn't matter as we were going to change it anyway.

So been looking around and just off the top of my head without any research, these are the cars the wife likes....

Touran 20.tdi
Ford C max estate
Ford Galaxy
Seat Alhambra

Anyway, not done a massive amount of research as yet but any advice on any of the above would be grand. Apparently a kerb weight of 1500kgs would be ideal for us and we would still need a biggis car for the kids and extra kit.

Will pop back later for a chat :)
Thanks, Den

Hi there ROG,
Thanks for the reply. MTPLM is 1300kilos.
And to throw another I to the mix, Citroen C4 Grand Picasso, 2.0 hdi, quite like the look of that :)
