As a lighthearted threat...let's gets some images of things you've towed, preferably not Caravans as that will easily fill the thread...what else? Cars? Horse boxes? Trailers?
I'll kick off: Got more than a ton of sand on the bigger of the two (braked trailer) And a little tractor my father in law made in the tiny trailer Not the most exciting bit something other than a 'van! |

My Saab Sonett on my car trailer on the way to the body shop for a little paintwork.
Bought the trailer years ago for our track day car and has come in useful for all sorts of carrying jobs. Tows like a dream. |

The remains of the Heinz 57 Hornet that I recovered from a garden in South Yorkshire.
My son and I are currently rebuilding it; it is coming on but will be a long job! |

Dad's XC60 towing his boat, at 26 feet it's a bit of a pull!
And my new (to me) XC90 towing the V70R AWD from Cumbria to Kent, and a Morris Minor back. As much weight as I'd put behind the XC, which is lucky as it's just about on its weight limits at that! I've yet to drive anything that could pull just as happily as my Disco TD5 however! Not much will beat low range gears, and a heavy separate chassis when it comes to towing really hefty stuff. |

the Pegasus 646 is pretty big I guess, overall length 7.8m (basically all of the AluTech twin axle Bailey's are the same length give or take)

I don't tow much, then usually an unbraked trailer tent, however, this was the biggest expedition I did in my old S60 bi-fuel. Preston - Aberdeen to collect this.

I thought the idea of the thread was to post anything but caravans. But since I haven't towed anything else, here you go. The small thing in front is my XC60 :)

All beautiful vans very impressive Trying to work out how to upload a picture heading to the FAQs and help section.....

The new caravan was the reason for buying the XC90. The V70 just couldn't quite cope.

Here is my Bailey Unicorn Vigo returning from a trip with the V90, no pictures of the XC60 towing it as yet, you can guess why but as soon as we can we will hit the road :regular_smile: I think just from driving the XC60 that we will notice a benefit from the Air suspension when towing really looking forward to the day we can test it out.
