I haven't been told anything by the dealer about 4c not being suitable for towing....I hope your dealer isn't right.
I never had any 4C problems towing with my old V70R.
In 3 weeks I'll be towing my Caterham 7 to the Nurburgring a journey I last did with my Disco 3...although I don't expect the XC to be quite so effortless I don't expect (fingers crossed) any problems. Car and trailer should be about 1300kgs
Next weekend I should be towing a Caterham 21 over to Huntingdon, so nowhere near as far, but car and triler will be closer to 1400kgs.
I don't know how quickly you need some feedback on the towing but I'm happy to post up my experience in due course.
Re your interior swap, going for T-tec I don't think would be so much of a problem, it was more the putting in of an interior that isn't fitted to any model (the velour)
Cheers
Gordon
