I’m very very new to this, I sold up my house and moved into a EuraMobil that I purchased last November, with no knowledge really of MH, lots of off grid wild camping ect . Just needed to make sure that I was not in a mad housing chain . 1st 5 days went well but yer always a but, only 1 solar panel and Leisure battery, yer that’s something I have to get to grips with , I found a lovely family owned fishing come caravan/ MH camp , Waterloo fm Market Harborough, really helpful in setting me up , completely different when Hooked up . You will get tired of me asking questions I have a good electric bike but I’m thinking of moving and looking for a property up to around Kendal / Lancaster in the next year and I’m going to need a small car (that’s easy )but I want a Towing system something like a small spec lift system . That’s the 1st question. Rick

I'd suggest getting a small car trailer.

TOADS's (Car tow systems) have a lot of issues and cost.
They are also illegal outside the UK.

A trailer may cost you more initially, but the car is standard and does not need modifications.
It also means you can swap the car as often as you need to.
A trailer can always be sold, probably for much the same cost as you paid, if you no longer need it.

Also, you can with a bit of practice reverse a car on a trailer.
You can not reverse a TOAD

If you pay you membership fee you can access the Classified section.
There is at least one car trailer for sale now.

1 year old, £2200, and good for a 1.2t vehicle, which means anything up to the size of a Citroen Berlingo could be towed.
