Hi,
So I'm looking at getting a 4x4 which I would want to use for towing. However, as I won't be doing it very often, I'd probably just be hiring a trailer for day use, soooo I won't know the trailer weight until I've booked one :-/
So anyway, the cars I've been looking at are all 2006/07:
Hyundai Tucson 2L CDX Petrol
Freelander TD4 2L Diesel
Nissan X-Trail 2.2L diesel
Kia Sportage CRDI 2L diesel
Which of these (if any) would be the best bet? Would only be towing one lightweight TB - 16.1 around 480-500kg and only on short journeys.
The Hyundai Tucson is the cheapest I've seen so am keen on that, but with it being a 2L petrol I'm just not sure if it would cope...I *think the towing capacity is 1600kg and the others are 1800kg.
Oh and I passed my test in 92.
Would appreciate any advice!
