I tow a Bailey Pegasus Grande Brindisi circa 1600 Kgs when loaded, I currently have a Discovery Sport 2.0D 180ps, which is brilliant. However my PCP deal ends in 12 months and I had planned to order something very similar. Unfortunately the Landrover main dealer has just told me that for the indefinite future you can only order Disco Sports as a Phev! No Petrols or Diesels can be ordered, who knows for how long.
So does anyone have any real world experience of towing a Caravan similar to mine with a Disco Sport Phev? Concerns are that once the battery is out of charge, the 3 cylinder Petrol won’t have enough power when we are fully loaded. I also don’t like the fact that the towing capacity is limited to 1600Kgs, when the Diesel Is 2000Kgs.
I could keep my current car, or try another manufacturer, but some real world knowledge would be useful. Thanks.
