Default Towing capacity for 240 GL.

We are thinking of buying a touring caravan after a 22 year break from caravanning.
I would use my 240 manual to tow.

I have, a few years ago, used the Auto to tow a 16' body length Eldis Shamal that we have use of.

When, in the 80's, we used to tour the UK and continent with the '76 244 Auto we had a Piper Clubman 212 caravan and towing that was a breeze.

We expect to be buying a bigger van this time.
Does anyone have any tips for us.

Does anyone tow with a 240 these days?

Colin
