I believe the Vauxhall lifetime warranty is no longer offered,not shown on their ads now.
Kia 7 year warranty is good,not that you need it often.
As a private buyer a decent warranty shows they have faith in their product.

My advice for what its worth... will your tow car also be your 'main' car...?

Now I consider myself very fortunate to have at least 5x good trips away in our van each year (Easter, 2x May Banks Hols, Summer & the Aug Bank Hols) which, equals 10x towing journeys if you like.

Given that such a tiny proportion of my time throughout the year is actually spent towing - my new car choice was geared for the solo driving. Just got back from its first outing - two weeks in Cornwall and we couldn't be happier with our choice.

Happy towing.. :)

No worries :)

I too quite like the look of the Insignia's (i think they get a lot of stick for being a Vaux) - the towing figures look good. You also get an awful lot of car for little money..

But.... for me i just don't think they are as a refined package as say Merc/Audi/BMW's etc - which was my number one priority when i bought the Audi.

Im very happy with the Audi - especially when I'm not towing..! I went for the Black Edition with the larger wheels & sports suspension etc .. it absolutley glues to the road and I don't even notice the van is on the back.

If your looking at something slightly larger - say like an A6 or 5 Series - my brother-in-law tows with a 520 touring and reckons he should have gone for the 3.0 and not the 2.0. Its a large car and he feels that the 2.0 is just a little underpowered.
