because i have a discovery tdi all ready and want something more car like again

this is my only car so some extra performance when not towing would be nice

was also thinking of the audi a6 v6tdi too

Hi Rob

Take a look at www.whattowcar.com

It gives you the ability to imput your caravan and proposed tow car. Have fun.

If you're considering an Omega V6 estate, you'll have to rule out an automatic because that has a max. permissible towload of only 1650kg. The manual version has a 1750kg limit which, allowing for 75kg noseweight, would only just get you over the 1800kg that you need. The manual V6 saloon has a bigger margin (1850kg towload limit).

Try an audi allroad, best tow car I have had.
