Economical towing vehicle?
Discussion
Need a car to do some towing with, but it needs to be economical for day to day driving (when not towing).
It will be towing a twin axled car trailer with up to around 2T of car on it.
Was going to go for a Land Rover of some sorts as an obvious choice, but are there any others that would be up to the job but cheaper to run?
Would like something fairly smart too if possible.
I've a friend with a Rav 4 for example, he can get 40-50mpg, though I don't know if it would be up to the towing task.
Any help appreciated.
Cheers

Budget isn't too important, at the moment I'm swinging towards a range rover sport.

TBH our (yes other end of spectrum) Trooper gets more of less the same mileage driving around with or without a trailer / horse in the back.....Cheers
Passed my test after 97 but have done my trailer test. What a load of cock that is.
I'll look into the tachos of a van. Would it require a special license? Would it still count as towing if something is on the back?
