hi all,
My name is will, I'm 21 and I have had a transit connect for about 1 year. As you are aware (due to my age) I am not able to tow over 750kg without taking a trailer test which I plan to take in a few weeks.
After looking up the towing capabilities of my connect, I was amazed that it has a maximum towing weight of 800kg!!
I have very limited knowledge of transits so it would be great if I could get a few suggestions from you guys of models that would be suitable for me.
It needs to be:
short wheel base - ideally the smallest transit larger than a long wheel base Connect.
Smallest/most efficiently diesel engine - as practical as possible.
year 2000 - 2006 (newer shape starts after 2000 (i think))
Tow reasonable weight - eg caravans, small plant equipment (1200Kg or 1400 kg ish)
What models do I need to be looking out for? My budget is about £3000
Thanks very much
