Hi I'm using a Renaut Scenic RX4 to pull my Avondale Dart. The car is permanent fwd with 80% front 20% rear distrbution, 1.9 ltr and an incredible amount of storage space, it's also available as a seven seater. My combination comes in at 76% and will cruise at 60 all day,

I would vote for the Audi A4 Quattro - we are on our second 3.0TDi S-Line Avant.

Perfect!

The idea of using the Motor Mover is a non-starter because the overrun brakes will come on if the caravan exerts any forward force on the towball - you'll just go nowhere. If you are ever stuck on a poor surface this is the reason why you always need to push the car and not the caravan.
