First timer here. Considering taking a job soon which will involve towing repossessed vehicles back to compounds. I have been told the best car for this purpose is a Volvo, but which one? Budget is limited but I don't want to buy something that is so old it may compromise reliability. Also what do I expect to get regarding fuel economy when towing a vehicle in the UK – most journeys will probably be 360 miles round trip with empty trailer, then approx. 60-100 round miles to the compound with car on the trailer. Petrol or diesel? Any help would be much appreciated. Many thanks.
