After reading and replying to a topic by Frank my mind started to think about all the old cars that used to pull caravans years ago.
A friend of mines dad has been caravaning for longer than I have been alive and has towed with many varied cars over the years. Talking to him once we got onto the subject of " best ever car towed with "
He told me that his best car for towing was an Austin Westminster closely followed my a Triumph 2500 PI, he claims that these old girls would pull a van up the side of a mountain with no wheels on !
Also in our conversation he mentioned about the fact that I had a large 4x4, muttering away he said, " I've been towing for over 40 years and have never needed one of those yet, nowadys all you see is 4x4's, why ? "
So my nomination is going to be the Triumph, good towcar and hard as nails for banger racing !
