Hi Jackie,

I was going to buy a VW Golf Plus 1.9Tdi but read somewhere that the engine lacked "something" so decided on the 2.0Tdi linked to a DSG gearbox.

Unfortunately this option is not available for the Golf trim level that I want so ........... after a LOT of reading and a couple of test drives we have decided on a .......

SEAT Toledo 2.0 Tdi DSG (which we collect on Friday). Identical to the Altea but with a bigger (and some people say ugly) boot. Both share the proven VW engine / gearbox combination.

There is a report in the November 2005 edition of Out and About magazine in which a SEAT ALTEA 2.0 Tdi tows an Avondale Dart 545-4 ......... the car gets a decent write up.

Hope this is of some help.

Steve

Thanks Steve for that info. Good luck with your new vehicle. We are going for the Seat Altea 1.9tdi at the moment we tow a tiny Ariva - but hope to up-grade eventually.

Thanks again - Jackie
