  1. Unless your looking to use it as accomodation on , for example a building site, you`ll find that most caravan sites will be VERY reluctant to let you in. They will assume you are a "traveller" Consider a big Volvo or similar.It`s not engine size that matters. it`s the kerbweight. The caravan must not weigh more than the car towing it !


  2. the 1.8 is probably to small, 2.5 would be best or are these diesels? In that case u might get away with 1.8 if it has a turbo.
