I did town my van however for 365km, up hill & down, with an A-frame, towcar being my 1.8 diesel FWD Corolla wagon. No problems. Your van should tow an MX-5 no problems, I'd think. I towed a 36 Chev coupe rod with my 1600 66 Kombi... pulled it fine. -- Andrew Grebneff 165 Evans St, Dunedin 9001, New Zealand <andrew.grebneff@stonebow.otago.ac.nz> Seashell, Macintosh, VW/Toyota van nut |
