grahamc Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 What is a good towing car? If I were to turn my supra into a track car and needed to trailer it around, what car should I use? Dont want a 4x4, dont like them. Would also be a weekend driver for me (I walk to work). Would a WRX or EVO work?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 my dad towed a caravan with a mk3 supra... keep it in the family dude ;P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Would a WRX or EVO work?? No. It's recommended that the trailer shouldn't weigh more than 80-85% of the weight of the tow vehicle. Turbo diesel vehicles are good because you get loads of low down torque. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLicense Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Audi A4 1.9 TDI would be my personal weapon of choice. Failing that, I think there's a Volvo V70R that's fairly pokey for a workhorse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Bigger the better, i tow a 1ton digger about sometimes and even that is a pita with my Mitsubishi l200, id imagine towing a supra in a car would be awefull. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbo diesel vehicles are good because you get loads of low down torque. I am sure I could pack on a few extra kilos and take some out of the supra Audi A4 1.9 TDI would be my personal weapon of choice. Failing that, I think there's a Volvo V70R that's fairly pokey for a workhorse. Those arent too bad... I found this: "AUDI A4 2.5 TDI V6 QUATTRO AVANT (2004)" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
