2T+ Tow car for less than £2K?

[curtis1222]

Im after some advice on what route to go down for a tow car for my Bmw e36 drift car!
Its going to be my daily driver aswell so ideally want something that dose a half decent MPG and isn't to agricultural!
Trailer im looking at weighs around 400-500Kgs and the bmws factory weight is around 1400kg, add in some tools and tyres and its over the 2t mark of things like the x-trail, freelander, 5 series etc

any recommendations?

Been offered a 2.8TD Fourtrak for cheap,got a massive 3.5T towing weight. Not sure what thats going to be like every day use though, anyone had one of these?

Cheers for the advice 200Plus Club, ive heard this before and never really understood how it works for example a defender can tow 3500kg but yet has a kerb weight of around 1900kg, im guessing because the trailers are twin axel it increases their stability or something so then the rule dosent apply as much as say, A focus pulling a single axle caravan?
