| Post subject: | Towing with Auto Jimny |
I am currently hunting for a new car. Looking at Jimnys and GV's. A jimny will be a bit small to take everything camping. So was thinking of a small trailer, will get it custom built to fit my camping gear in it. Has any one towed with an Auto jimny or another small auto 4wd off road?? |

1 of my customers has an auto Jimny & tows a SMALL trailer with no probs, as long as you don`t expect to overtake ANYTHING on the highway. Auto`s off road fine, gutless but fine . I`d go the Gv tho, but i drive a gv. Steve |

If your really worried, fit a larger oil cooler for the auto. This will extend the life of the auto espically wilst towing |

Had planned for the auto cooler and maybe extractors to help the engine along. Has anyone had any first hand experience??? Will be looking at the current M13A as well. |

You might find it hard to find extractors for the M13A mate. I know a few people who are after them now. But I tow a small trailer camping all the time and she handles really well but saying that mines a manual but I agree with everyone about the cooler. Cheers Woody |
