Does anyone else tow a caravan? We've recently bought a heavier one, and whilst its a good match on towcar.info, I feel that even at optimal nose weight, the Stelvio sags and the back of the caravan is raised. My husband thinks we need new springs and shocks. Its a 67 model. Surely it cant...

I only ask the question because since the demise of my 2.4 156 Sportwagon, I don't have a tow car and wondered if my 147 16v 1,9TI would be up to the job?

I picked up a 2002 156 TS, (in red of course) 12 days ago and today had the opportunity to give her, (yes I'm already that attached) a good clean. There is some very stubbon tree sap type stuff here and there that won't shift. I know caravan cleaner will get it off in a shot. The question is...

I know the Max Tow on my 2009 Alfa 159 1.9 JTDM Lusso Saloon is 1500kg. However what is the actual kerb weight of the car. I am considering buying a Swift Caravan that has an unladen weight of 1283kg and a Max Permissible Weight of 1495kg. I am concerned whether this caravan is simply too...

Ok everyone I need some help. The missus job maybe changing location soon and her trusty 04 plate TD4 Freelander is gonna be a bit thirsty so we are thinking of replacing it with a Mito. :) The problem presents itself as we use said trusty Freelander to tow our caravan. Now my black 159 Ti...

Hey guys (especially shiny!), I have fitted a DVD head unit and and a set of cheap (but suprisingly very good) Pioneer 13cm speakers to my caravan. The sound is really good with clear mids and trebles and thumping lows. The trouble I have is that the the bass is so deep that it is rattling the...

My lad races go karts at the weekend. We have a converted LDV Sherpa minibus that spends all month in the garage and just comes out for one weekend, not really economical with the car tax and insurance. Can't find any insurance company to do short term insurance. I was thinking of replacing the...

Saw a very strange sight on my way home from work this evening - A bright red GTV pulling a caravan - isn't there a law against this sort of thing?

Hi all, After settling back down my my hols a week or so ago, I have got the chance to show you my new caravan which I picked up when I was away. See what you think. All comments welcome of course ;)

For those of you who may be interested (I guessing not many though) here are some photos of my caravan. Are you one of those people who think caravans are for low lifes and have buckets for toilets?? If this is the case, I hope this will prove you wrong, with a peak into a modern day caravan...
