What can we replace our CR-V with for towing a caravan?

I currently own a Honda CR-V 2.0 ES automatic on an 02 plate. We would like to buy a caravan, but would like something more economical and better for towing. We love the CR-V but I don't think its the best for towing.

An X-Trail 2.2 diesel is a better shed tugger but has what psychologists call "issues". See: www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/nissan/x-trail-2001/
