Well the Caravelle has gone
and been replaced with a 400Bhp S60.

So what I need now is a T6 that’s capable of pulling my caravan
What’s the 102’s like for towing, it’s not going to be a daily drive so it doesn’t need to be a rocket ship

102 will do it, but will struggle occasionally.

400 - - - - !!!

Bring the S60 to summer camp, i need a go of that ! - Preferably on a disused runway, or maybe Silverstone will do.?

As has been said, the 102 will do it, but any slight incline and it will nearly stop! I used to tow my 2 ton Mastercraft with an 84ps and it was painful (this was 16 years ago and I wasn’t a Revo dealer then)

You need a nice 7 speed DSG 140 BHP

I know the pain of slow never ending hills, I used to be a car transporter driver after driving to London. There is a big going south on the M40 that we used to call Church bank and you all but stopped half way up. Tried pulling the f**king steering wheel of with road rage

312 BHP 2.0ltr petrol/ supercharged engine and 90bhp electric motor. Fast as f...

Well the S60 might be short lived, fault after fault and only had it 10 days. Sunday is the cut off for the 14 day “distance purchase “ rules, decisions decisions

 

[Niknak]

What you had go wrong ?

 

[Niknak]

Volvo not as good as they were, worked on them the past twenty years, too much Ford influence

 

[Eli]

What you had go wrong ?

Parking climate hasn’t worked since I bought and now the charging keeps dropping say it has been disconnected even though it’s plugged in

@Eli ... Very nice.....the wife has just changed to Skoda...can see why they all want digital dash and puddle lights. ( too many toys )...hope you sort out the gremlins.....
Dare I post a pic under other VW’s

@Eli - Give the Volvo back and buy another Vw.
You know it's the right thing to do...

Mr's has got the new Seat Leon on lease.....Thinking about trying to buy it at the end,allthough the lane correcting pisses me off!

I am buying a T6 even if I kept the Volvo, I only got the Volvo to use for work as my work is 1.5miles away from my house and I can use electric to get the and back ha ha

We used our 150 dsg kombi to tow our 1800kg bailey. Never had a problem up hills but did drop down a few gears uphill to sit at 60mph in Cornwall.

That said the new 204 velle is better .

Seconded, have done +260km this week on it and it’s great!!

Well the S60 has gone back...... what to buy next. Maybe a car and an older van or a new high spec van definitely the wrong place to be asking questions like this
