    Motor mover. Necessity or nice to have?

    I agree with you totally regarding twin axles I had movers fitted on both axles on our crusader borealis last year, They have got me onto some tight pitches on CLs and for me, it makes things easier to line up precisely for the alko wheel lock. Happy Caravaning

    lots of Cls have been doing this and it's no problem for us , might be able to book a weekend at York Rowntree Park in 2022 now

    just collected our new van from the dealers , looking forward to getting out in it soon . Upgraded to TA so a new experience for me spacious inside with a big fridge freezer , so more space for the ice and beer 😆

    Kia Sorento Suitability

    Hi Roygriff I have a 2018 KX2 Kia Sorento Auto towing an Eldiss Crusader TA with no problems It has an MTPLM of 1800kgs but have to be careful loading the van so the hitch does not exceed 100kg. The manual version will give you 150kg hitch towing weight but to date I've had no issues towing...

    Thanks for your reply Otherclive, when I bought the car, unfortunately there was no owners manual with the car so have only been using smart mode for all driving
