Towed a twin axle with the Auto model for 6 years the only problem i had was a blocked fuel filter that the dealer said was being caused by the paint coming away from the inside of the fuel tank, Paint?????????????????
they quoted £800 for a replacement tank.
The solution was to ignore their comment and just change the fuel filter once done never had the problem again, or any other problems in the 6 years i owned it
great tow car.

We had a 56 reg followed by a 59. They are very good towcars, ours were reliable too.

Not the most economical when towing but will trundle along in fifth gear all day!

Now have a 62 new shape which we like a lot!( bit more grunt and uses less fuel cos its lighter!)

Oh no not another Kia Sorento post. So many good comments about them for towing, OH will be very jealous, hopefully next year we can join the Sorento club.
