oh poor you, we've got a ford galaxy which pulls our van, but it's not a twin axel, it is a big van though at 23ft. Sorry not much help but good luck finding something, i'm sure something will come up xxx

thanks , our van is 24ft and 6" we have been looking for ages but all the cars we have seen some of the panels do not match up etc so we wont touch them with a barge pole

Couldn't you hire a car if you can't find one rather than cancel your holiday?

do you know any nice people with a larger vehicle with tow bar that could just pull your caravan, and you give them petrol/diesel money for their time etc and you follow. Are you going far?

nice people yes- but with a car that will tow - no, going to look at a merc ml tonight with 7 seats, i hope it is ok and not got any damage to it, or been oversprayed to hide defects
