Hi   I have a chance of a 2011 laguna 1.5dci as a towcar to pull my bailey discovery 400    the match seems ok when using the online checks but I am worried about towing a 1050kg caravan with such a small engine anyone any experience of this? Thanks

I tow with a Megane 1.5dci. My Fleurette Tamaris only weighs 850Kg fully loaded but the Megane pulls it no problem at all and still returns over 40mpg so I don't think you would have a problem towing 1050 Kg.
