The MTPLM is around 1900Kg and its twin axle. You're going to need a 4x4, because I can't think of any car that will tow that weight together with what will be a pretty hefty noseweight.

Have you got the van yet?

You will definitely need a 4x4. Try a Kia Sorento. It will tow that and more but it is a very heavy van.

I have just been and looked at the Schooner today. Nice van but I want two single beds. I see the Explorer Group have brought out a new Rallye with an island bed but the doors seperating the bedroom and bathroom are so flimsy (Remis I think). The ones I looked at had already broken and the van was new!

Will have a look at the ones at the NEC.
