Re: Which car to flat tow?
Bruce,
The two reasons the GV is in the "possible future" category are:
1. Suzuki don't make a 3-door Vitara, only the GV has that variant (they're different sized bodies - you have to see them side-by-side to tell), and
2. SWMBO is getting used to the luxury fittings of the Baleno, and it makes the new Jimny still look 'agricultural' by comparison.
The V does come as a 4WD, although it seems most buyers are happy saving $$$ by pretending they have a 4WD...
And our Baleno is giving 5.45l/100km, even using its turbo performance. If I drove with a feather-foot I'd probably do a lot better.
But I'm having fun with it!!

The one in Terry's yard might be closer?
Are you thinking of towing it behind your bus Dot?

"tanks" here---
maybe a lot easier than going the other way;
i.e. S>A> to N.S.W.
I'm now 85 years of age and living in WA, single (gave up looking), white hair, no teeth, no address, no money, no worries.
