chrisbin Posted August 5, 2005 Posted August 5, 2005 Max power (bhp/rpm) 222/4000 Max torque (lb ft/rpm) 369/1750 Towing weight (kg) 3500 I can vouch for that!!! Its a cracking bit of kit but you'll be lucky to find one under £30k I think.....thats why I suggested the 2.5 with a chip/box which brings it fairly close to those figs.... Edited to add: 2.5 before: bhp 174 2.5 before: torque 296 2.5 after: bhp 210 2.5 after: torque 337 Quote
MAT1800 Posted August 5, 2005 Posted August 5, 2005 What about the new Audi 4x4? Not much news about it out at the moment, (i Don't think) But from what little I've seen it looks like a very nice car, and I'm sure it would be more than capable of towing. And unlike the Discovery I doubt they even pretend that you might want to take it off road. Mat. Quote

steve_m Posted August 5, 2005 Posted August 5, 2005 I used to sell amplifiers to a chap who made PA speakers which, in his own words, " . . . sounded better the further you are away from them." Quote
hilux Posted August 6, 2005 Posted August 6, 2005 Can't drive that, though..... And not much fun driving True But for £6000 you can have a 330 bhp 170 mph 944 turbo that drives around 911`s on the track...................... and that is fun Quote

windy Posted August 6, 2005 Posted August 6, 2005 If I was looking for a tow barge I'd forget 4x4's & buy a Alfa 166 with the 3 litre v6 engine. Luxury & reliable 150 mph comfortable cruising performance for peanuts. £6K will get you a good one. Quote
