All depends on what ya got to spend and how much ya want for your old disco!?

Re: Towing vehicle,4x4 or estate??
The disco is a m reg,only does about 12/14 mpg when towing!i need something a bit more economical and dont want to spend over £5000.I was thinking maybe a estate would be better cos the cheaper tax.But i dont want to be getting stuck in any fields!

Well we can be smug at the moment with diesel at £1.20 and LPG at 48p.......but making the most of it cos it wont last.

The estate takes petrol but our local petrol station will be sold out tomorrow cos of this strike so we have to make it last now!
