I'm thinking of changing our caravan to something a little larger - I have no problem towing a large outfit, and neither will the Touareg but I'm concerned about manoeuvrability particularly at home.
We live at the end of a road, effectively a cul-de-sac, so on return from a caravan trip I have to unhitch, move the car out of the way and then spin the caravan on it's axis 180 degrees so that I can back it into place this allows me to drive straight out next time. The road is only about 6m wide but the jockey wheel can run out over the council grass next to the road as there's no kerb.
Now a single axle caravan is easy to spin on it's axis with the mover with one side going forward and the other backwards - but can a twin axle do that without shredding the tyres or the tarmac?
Almost all the sites we visit have plenty of space so I do't see an issue there - just at home - SWMBO won't entertain the idea of using a storage facility so that's not an option.
I know that plenty of other contributors use twin axles so maybe someone has experience a similar restriction.
