Back in the 80's I crewed at the Merlin Nationals for someone who towed his boat behind a Bond style Lotus, which was fine till the trailer got a puncture...I had to change the wheel, and than when I got back in he was paranoid I'd touch the inside of the car with mucky fingers...

Give me an old Citroen anyday...especially as I have a habit of breaking cars...I managed to stick the handle of the trolley on the combi through the GRP boot of my ZX when reversing about 18 months ago...really must take the duck tape off and mend it...

Citroen C5 Estate would be the best tow car, but you would look Pretty old and naff, Audi A6 Allroad would be a nice choice Classy, Chunky Economic And Cool
