If the 1.6 2wheel drive is a petrol model, then your MPG will be quite low when towing, likewise the Automatic ls less fuel efficient than the manual model, and quite slugish as well.
I got given a CRV auto 1.6 as a curtosy car when mine went in for a service, the pick up and power of it was like driving a snail, even my automatic Jazz could do better with its 1.4 engine, and even that is like driving a Grannys car when it comes to power and speed.
Ok, l may be biased, but if you could find a 2.2 Dtec Crv manual with low mileage and a full service history, l think you would be very pleased with the results when it comes to towing your caravan, power just when you need it and not to bad on the MPG either.
