Considering one of these as a towcar, the 2.0 litre diesel, however it has a "semi" automatic gearbox and am unsure how this will cope, particularly reversing the caravan up into my drive.

Any experiences?

We have the C4 Grand Picasso and think it is a good tow car. We have the EGS gearbox and as there is no clutch to burn out, the getting it on you drive will be easy.

Hi.

I have had the 2.0 diesel G.P. EGS for about 2 years.

I have found it DOES NOT like reversing up any kind of slope with the

van on, otherwise an easy drive.

Cheers.
