Beemer will easily tow the MX5 as will the Volvo.

Saab has a lower towing capacity (1500kg I think) so may be near the limit when you have the MX5 + trailer + spares etc..

What's the biggest diesel Quattro estate you can get for £6k?

Something like this would leave enough in the bank for a new mountain bike and a half decent ski trip: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3077000.htm
