Honda Tourer 2.2CTDi. 5 speed earlier version. Overall MPG 40. Tows all day at legal speeds. Stable under all load conditions. Reverse a bit high for manouvering caravan, need to slip clutch in tight spots. 1st gear also a bit high. Not much pull below 1500rpm. 4th gear best for cruising up to 65 with cruise control on. luggage capacity good. Rear seats a bit cramped. Annual French trips on all French roads no problem & non speed restricted motorways (caravans same as solo cars) mean you can do up to 80mph if fuel consumption not too critical. Romps up long French hills & responds if you want to pull out to overtake. Current road tax £145 & not due to be hit with much of an increase. Owned for 4+ years & haven't seen a cost effective alternative replacement. Worth a test drive.
