Which car to town a heavy caravan?
I have a budget of £7000 but don't want to spend it all. I need a car to go to work and back (10 miles) and tow a 1475 weight caravan.

That's a heavy caravan so requires a large, heavy car weighing around 1,700kg. Probably forces you into something like a Mondeo 2.0TDCI.
