Towing Vehicles!!

Anyone of you know of a good towing vehicle that has room for 4 people and a dog, plus a mini-moto and lots of boat racing stuff?? Any suggestions welcome or if any of you have on for sale then let me know.

Maybe CC will go for the "Hummer"

Good excuse for a bigger Boat

"Don't my boat look small behind this" could be quoted to the missus

I bought its replacement 18 months ago!!

Am I getting a reputation for being a slow, lazy so & so?

The only type of "hummer" i'm interested in isnt a vehicle!

I've got plenty of ideas, I love me cars.

Hows about Night Nurse makes things interesting by giving us a budget?

And i did suggest sommink.........I highly recommend Jeep Cherokees...especially in Gun metal blue, circa '98.

If i was 'nurse i'd have the more economical 2.5L 5 speeed

I'd love a cherokee too but not much room for a mini moto as per the original shopping list

4L high output auto given the chance, then off to the channel islands for the cheap fuel to run it..

Taz,

Do you live on a campsite?

And would you throw a Dag in with the deal?

Well to make it easier for you guys as you are so helpful we are looking for something like a van space wise it does need to have seating for four and a dog! At the mo we have a pajero but that is to small. We is looking at a tight budget of around £4000 for something not hundreds of miles. Needs a big enigne to pull the boat, diesel as well more economical!!

What the fuel guzzling thing we are on a tight budget of racing this year though. Good idea though and will consider. Matt how is the boat thing going?
