hi!

Am just in the process of purchasing a newer car for towing!

We need a 4/5 door car/4x4 diesel preferably, that is reasonably cheap to run maintain and insure, Any ideas please????

I currently have a sprite muskateer and a renault senic which seems to struggle a little at times, but has very good fuel ecconomy.

 

thanks

jackie

Think its what we all want but we're still looking!  Have concluded that our ideal car doesn't exist. What weight are you towing?
