However it was only front wheel drive and In snow useless and living out in the Dales you need 4 wheel drive in Winter ( or you used to!)
At the time the Kia Sorento was always the tow car of the year and you had 4 wheel drive if you needed it.
To date I have used the 4 wheel drive maybe 3 or 4 times in snow or ice.
Or course the 4 wheel drive comes in handy on campsites if wet. Used that maybe 6 times.
Changing Caravans required a high tow limit on the car now 100kg instead of 80kg.
That tow limit is or was difficult to get in a car just as it was to get an Automatic car that would tow a Caravan, Automatics were limited to 750 kg weight on the caravan but manual around twice that.
My Sorento does everything that I require of it, just not very economical as some more modern ones but not enough to justify a change.
