Hi, I'm after some impartial advice.
I've used the search function and have found conflicting advice on towing with a Defender. I have an old (Heavy) double axle Avondale caravan, I tow it down to Devon at Easter each year 240 miles in one hit (been using my Amazon 4.2 for the last 5 years).
I've swapped the Amazon for a Defender 2004 110 TD5, now I realise it will feel a little underpowered but I've read that I should avoid using 5th gear unless I want it stripped!
Is this true
