Towing advice with a 940

I currently have a p3 xc70 d5 205 6 speed but the last few caravan trips its let me down and the last trip it tried to put itself on fire so both times we swapped towcar for my old trusted p80 v70 tdi . I was shocked how well it managed for such an old car and even gave better mpg than the xc70.
My caravan is 1450-1550kg max and I'm looking at buying a 940 turbo manual and towing with that.Has anyone had any experience with the old 940s in term of stability, rear suspension sagging and how horrible the mpg is.
I also have a rica v70 t5 but the thought of towing with that gives me the fear haha.
