Yes but the Mondeo beat them all so not quite sure what it proves! In reality how can anyone say they are better than for instance the TDV8RRS or FFRR Vogue SE? They put too much emphasis on economy and price IMO. But a great one for LR! I haven't put a towbar on the Fl2, its staying on the D3 D4 HSE Lux for me

"...with a style that is bound to appeal to caravanners."

Isn't that a criticism?

Also seems a bit odd to put it in the "over £32,000" category, as non of the diesels cost that much, even an HSE with towbar fitted!

If you were a caravanner you would know if you had a alko hitch you should not put grease on the towball.
I think I will have a drink to celebrate the Land Rover Freelander2 being the ‘Best Towcar over £32,000’
Could Martin put a caravan in the Emotions Column for us please? Very Happy

Yeh!! up yours GS69 Evil or Very Mad I'm sitting here with my third G&T (each one a quad Thumbs Up sorry if the spelling goes a drift I am tryin to focus on the keyboard!!! Rolling Eyes ) toasting the accolade of best tow car 2008, and with a price tag of £31950 plus £450 for a tow bar ....kerching, a £32K plus motor, bring it on big fella!!!. Razz

I only wanted a tow bar for the bike rack, as soon as the wife saw that masculine symbol protruding from the back of the car she said......'I want one'...........caravan that is.......not 6" of rock hard steel Laughing Laughing Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter thats what I'm for Question Embarassed Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter

As soon as that tow bar goes on it is unstoppable, it is like being a member of the 'Scientology Religious Sect' no matter what people say you don't listen.....they are jealous, out to harm you, you are a caravaner, with 'caravanability'......you must spread the word.....knock on doors on Sundays with smartly dressed children by your side preaching the wonders of that plastic shed on wheels........no, no, fight the urge to break free.......what I preach is right......caravans are the furure............help!! Help!!!!! no don't fight the force.......ooh err!!! Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter GS69 get one fitted to your beloved...........you too will see the light....even if on a dimmer switch you will see the light ............you are your destiny Exclamation Crying or Very sad Cool Evil or Very Mad Razz Shocked Very Happy Neutral Bow down Thumbs Up Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter

Haven't got a tow bar fitted yet, I'd only get one if I had a trailor to take garden rubbish to the tip.

As for a caravan........................NO Censored WAY, not on my baby, she looks gorgeous without any extras Thumbs Up ______________________
