2003 Elddis Firestorm 524 towed by 2006 V50 2.0 d. Very stable towing and enough grunt to get the job done with ease.
As for sites, anywhere that allows dogs so usually Caravan club certified locations.
Haven't been away since new year so really looking forward to getting out.

We are non-snobby Caravan Club members and have been so since 1988. We have a 2014 Coachman Vision 565/4 and our MY14 VolvoXC60 which we haven't used for towing yet.
The image is at Salisbury Hillside and shows our previous towcar a 2010 Kia Sorento KX-2 Auto.

We enjoy the caravan club sites and the good standards and always manage to get a pitch,
I can confirm that we ain't snobby and I am not a keyboard warrior either.

Can't agree with this.

Well, we are not and enjoy chatting with new people and making new friends.

Found the camping and caravanning club more down to earth. Caravan Club seemed too 'elite'. Every site I went on was like a caravan and motor show, whereas with the camping club there was a wide spectrum of old and new, and members seemed more down to earth.
