A New Tow Car

I started looking for a replacement tow car nearly two years ago when little things started going wrong with my trusty old Mondeo estate - like the heating fan starting to make a noise and the front passenger door not always wanting to open from the outside. I started off looking at any big diesel estate for about
£3k but as the months wore on with nothing suitable in my price range I decided that I would need to be more specific and would also have to pay more. In the end, if something works - why change it? I was very happy with the Mondeo, it is one of the biggest estates on the market and, although not exactly common, there are more of them than most other makes. I finally found a suitable one in September at Henry's in Glasgow. It's a bit older than I was hoping for but, with one previous owner, is in good condition with a reasonably low mileage. No towbar but I got a fixed swan neck fitted by Fife Towbars in Thornton for a very good price. I'd only had it for a fortnight when I took the caravan off for the weekend and all went well - the new car seems to be even more economical than the old one when towing. It also has a much bigger fuel tank which is a real bonus when towing! All-in-all I am very pleased with it.
