I have a 54 plate cmax 1.6 diesel. Just got my towbar fitted, although only wanting to tow a trailer not a van, I find it pretty good for the family although the missus has a picasso which is more versatile and roomy. prefer the cmax myself though

A mate of mine tows a 5 berth abbey with his no problem. i think his cars the 2ltr one and his van is around 1300.

He actually changed from a frontera to this car as his frontera was struggling.
