I don't think I've ever seen Lexus IS pulling a caravan!!?? I tow a Caravan with the Lexus and it is fine as a tow car. It has a lot of power at low end therefore have never had a problem moving our caravan. I tow an 2006 Stearling Eccels Jewel, what do you have?? I have a 2007 Coachman VIP 460/2 with a MPTL of 1420kg, with my current BM330d I dont even notice it on the back and get 34mpg towing. Is the Lex as impressive?

Hi Guys Had a whole day test drive of a 220d Sport last Friday to see if it would be an option instead of the ubiquitous Bemm 330d, Loved the toys, the handling and the better comfort. However I was concerned about the significant turbo lag and the likely effect this would have as a tow car. Has anyone got experience of towing a caravan with this car? The dealer told me the lag was due to the very significant additional emmissions kit needed to achieve the new Euro standards. Thanks Pete.
