Default Towing an Ifor Williams trailer & 1 horse

I know there are towing specs and have looked at them and find different models awkward to compare. Also, towing a horse trailer is different from a caravan as the contents are not static!

If I replace my old volvo V70 Tdi, should i
  • Replace it with an 850 or early V70 (funds limited).
  • Buy a manual as I understand extra gearbox cooling is required if using an auto model?
  • Look for a 10v or 20v petrol or a diesel?
  • prefer 170 bhp to 140 bhp?

Sorry to be so ignorant, hope someone can advise
Thanks
