towing

[Jools1234]

i find all the information on what weight cars can tow very confusing.
i need a car that can legally tow at least 1,600k, not a 4 wheel drive but something that would be a sensible family car too. preferably an estate but not essential
is there anywhere i can put this information in an get a comprehensive list on what might be available, then i can start sorting through what is about for my price range?

Best bet is to in cr & ask ROG on the towing sticky - he's the towing guru on here

Best bet is to .....ask ROG .....

The only list would be gained by either doing a google search of perusing through a site like this and looking at the towing capacities column

Are you restricted by only having a B licence or will you be towing under full/provisional B+E ?

Had another think about this and to tow a weight of 1600 kgs would require the driver to be under B+E licence rules because to tow 1600 under B licence rules would need a vehicle of max GVW 1900 and min kerbweight of 1600 and I have never come across a vehicle which would match that criteria
