Why would I do that, I can only slow down if I'm going to fast? Which is something I don't do while towing !!.Secondly 36mpg is another reason not to change vehicles.

The x trail will do that without a problem. Whilst in France in our works Nissan Navarra I was passed by an old Peugeot 205 towing a reasonable sized trailer. I tried to catch him up to see how fast this old 80s car was towing at and at 95mph he was getting away from me. I then passed a more modern MPV towing a boat at 80+ mph. And I will be limited to 58mph next week because my GTW will be 4020kg.
