Good Evening,

My trusty towing car, VW Bora (128HP/228 ft-lbs) has expired and I am considering purchasing a C Class Mercedes (122HP/199 ft-lbs) cira about 2006.
We tow an old Fleetwood (650kg) but only for about four hundred miles a year.
The figures for the C Class seem to be OK but does anyone have any observations concerning the C Class as a tow vehicle?

Looks like there's loads of info out there on the C class take a look at this link for instance :-

From what I've seen while towing over the years it's not that popular a tow car, but come to that neither is the BMW which is what I've towed with for the last 9 years.
