Not EVERYWHERE at 50 mph. I'd slow down a bit near schoolsOriginally Posted by Marco
I'd NEVER EVER tow a caravan
It's a fucking horrendous experience, on ALL levels!! First, you've just strapped a huge obstacle onto your car, which it was never designed to take, and which has completely upset every aspect of its handling, and secondly, you have to drive everywhere at 50 fooking miles per hour!!!!
I'd die of BOREDOM within half an hour!

Caravanners talk about the freedom and joys of the open road. Course it is! All the pissing traffic's behind them.

I know it may sound callous, but if I see a car towing a caravan that is on the hard shoulder, either broken down or pranged, I smile a little bit.

Helicopters are inherently unstable, this looks brilliant.
