Tow Car Review UK

This site reviews tow cars of the last six years that I have owned or tested for my article in the Tyneside Independent to rate their abilities as a tow car. There are twelve tow cars featured on this web site ranging from a Vauxhall Calibra to a Land over with a range of prices from £15K to £37K. Each car was tested for its basic abilities as a car, their performance when towing, comfort and ability to cope with caravaning life which included ease of loading luggage etc. Each car was lived with for about a year so living with the vehicle was also important. Some rated highly in certain areas and not in others but all cars here are popular tow cars so all performed well to a degree. Below is the list of cars in order of when I drove them.
