They do indeed.

The Superb is a great car though a bit big for my needs.  However the winning car has the same engine as my Octavia vRS.  I can vouch for it being an excellent engine for towing.

2011 award in Sept 2010? . I'm sure it was only a few months ago when I was reading the 2010 awards?

I bet it was about 12 months ago, nelmo!

The TCOTY title will be used by the winning manufacturers as a marketing tool for the next 12 months. No-one's interested in 2010 in September - eyes turn to the next new thing.

Now all the car manufacturers have to do is train their dealer staff to actually understand what a "tow car" is and what it can legally and safely tow...
