SO FAR SO GOOD
« on: April 18, 2006, 13:24:15 »
I used my Freebie towing my caravan for the 1st time this easter,just a little note to let you all know how it went.
I was impressed by the tourque from the td4 engine,only changed down once along the whole of the A55 Bangor-Chester.Outward journey got 25.3 mpg with a strong headwind,return journey got 29.7.
So all in all im very happy with my Freebie  :D

Glad to hear it. They don't have the best reputation on the planet, but we certainly like ours. I think we get about 35mpg normally, but we don't tow with it. So it sounds like the mpg didn't take a huge hit, even towing.
