Hi guys just changing our car to a 2017 Volvo XC60 March registration and need a towbar fitting. I just wondered if anyone knew the pros and cons of having car specific wiring compared to universal. Any advice would be much appreciated thanks

Thanks for the prompt reply. I will have to take a look at the V5 document and report back to you tomorrow .

I am curious to know what weight (MTPLM ) caravan any Mondeo MK3 owners tow. We have been looking at a replacement caravan with a fixed bed and alde heating. I had my eye on the Bailey Valencia until we were told that the outfit match would be a 93% ratio. Although these figures are legal we...

Thanks Val We have actually tried to get into this aire last year but it was heaving (July school hols). This year were going middle 2 weeks of August, hopefully it will be quieter. I just wondered if anyone knew of a site that would accept late arrivals. We may decide to push on further it...

Hi Guys Could anyone help with any overnight stops near Abbeville (A16). Any sites that allow late arrival i.e. after midnight or anywhere safe to stay to put our heads down for a few hours. Thanks in advance (as I know someone will come up trumps!!) Wendy

We are updating our towcar this year but are in no hurry. Just wondered what car you fellow members would buy with that sort of money. Thanks for any replies in advance.

Hi George&Ade Just wanting to pick your brains about the CRV. We've just been looking at buying a CRV as our next towcar. What is the nose weight limit on the towbar and how much did it cost to have one fitted? You say you get 42mpg solo but what year is the car? Does it feel like a stable...

I'm looking forward to next years hols too. Great weekend by the way !

Thanks for the help. Had thought about passay 4motion but there a bit like rocking horse droppings to get hold of

Thanks Phil for the info. We really liked the outlander it seemed to tick all the boxes inside and out but then were put off with the comments about the clutch. We do a lot of towing, we take the caravan abroad most years and travel to the likes of Italy and Spain so having a good/reliable...

Thanks waffler for your reply. Were probably looking to spend around £13,000 and have something thats quite good on fuel. Dont want an automatic we would rather stick to manual. Theres quite a lot of options on the market which is why I've turned to the forum for help in choosing as you cant...

Were looking at replacing our current car which is a VW passat estate 130bhp for a four wheel drive. I've been looking at the choices and have read many reviews on particular cars and am now overwhelmed by it all. It dosent have to be a permanent four wheel drive one with the option of 4 wheel...

Can anyone help with any information about the Outlander as a towcar? It ticks all our boxes inside as we only need five seats as opposed to the seven it offers. It's very roomy front and back and front and second row seats both recline which is excellent for our long journeys touring abroad...
