I've just bought a 2009 2.0 ltr cdti Vauxall Antara manual (deisel)
and now having 2nd thoughts.....I tow a 2007 Coachman VIP 520/4 and although it is a match i'm a little concerned ! !
about fuel economy ....I use to have a 2005 2.0 ltr crdt Hyundai Santa Fe but started to get serious problems with it, so got rid.
Has anyone got the 2.0 cdti Vauxall Antara Manual Deisel
and if so,,,,, what does it tow like..??

Yeah for a diesel they are way off the mark.

Your going to be looking at the lower end of the 30's to the gallon.
Depending on traffic and driving style.

Shouldnt be far off the Santa Fe though.
