Volkswagen T4 1.9 td [2] and Bailey

Michael reviewed on 19 September 2023 a Volkswagen T4 1.9 td [2] (68 PS/50 Kw, Year: 0 - 2003) with a Bailey Ranger 460/2 of n.a. kg.

Slow slow slow plan ahead allow plenty of time to get to your destination does the job very slowly.
On a position note the set is is very stable even with lorry's whizzing by you on motorway inclines

Volkswagen T5 1.9 TDI and Eriba

Alan reviewed on 30 October 2021 a Volkswagen T5 1.9 TDI (105 PS/77 Kw, Year: 2004 - 2007) with a Eriba Touring Triton 430 of n.a. kg.

We have have several tow cars and several caravans. The VW T5 with the Eriba Triton is the best combination we have ever had. Tows perfectly, never experienced and snaking with it. And plenty of power. I would defiantly recommend this combination

Volkswagen T5 2.5 TDI and Adria

Adrian Jennings reviewed on 16 November 2013 a Volkswagen T5 2.5 TDI (131 PS/96 Kw, Year: 2007 - 2009) with a Adria Adora 542 DL of 1400 kg.

Having made a few trips in this outfit now, it works brilliantly. The T5 swallows luggage with ease and carries passengers in comfort. Mine is a Kombi with the 130 PS engine and six speed box, it cruises effortlessly at the legal speed limit, fifth gear providing reserve power for motorway inclines. Fuel economy is around 28 MPG towing, 36 without the caravan.

N M Kitchen reviewed on 30 October 2010 a Volkswagen T5 2.5 TDI (174 PS/128 Kw, Year: 2004 - 2007) with a Bailey Senator Carolina of 1696 kg.

I've had 3 Caravelle's, the last purchased in 2006 on an 05 plate. If you want a vehicle with power, torque and oceans of room - then this is it! OK, so it lacks 4-wheel drive but the other side of the coin is it doesn't cost a fortune in road tax and fuel. I've looked into buying a newer vehicle for towing my Carolina but after much research, I would struggle to get a better tow / holiday vehicle!

Volkswagen T4 2.5 TDI and Lunar

Mick Hirst reviewed on 18 July 2008 a Volkswagen T4 2.5 TDI (88 PS/65 Kw, Year: 0 - 2003) with a Lunar Quasar 525 of 1300 kg.

Our T5 is an Autosleeper Trident SWB conversion. It has plenty of bulk to keep the unit stable, but I would like a bit more power. We are slowed down by some long motorway hills (West Country going up towards Bristol) and have to use 4th gear quite a bit. Fuel consumption does not seem to be all that affected and may be around 32mpg instead of 36 not towing. You do have to use all the power to keep the unit moving and on some long A road hills, its down to 3rd gear.

Volkswagen T5 2.5 TDI and Fleetwood

David reviewed on 05 June 2008 a Volkswagen T5 2.5 TDI (174 PS/128 Kw, Year: 2007 - 2009) with a Fleetwood Heritage 640-EST TA of 1625 kg.

T5 with 172 hp is a fantastic tow vehicle. We cruise at above legal motorway speed limit in 6th no problems :)
Fuel is about 400miles to tank full. Stability is great except for very high speed vans overtaking too close, as normal. Could do with a longer 1st gear though, in my opinion.
