This year's Towcar Awards cause a stir
The Towcar Awards 2010, announced in our August issue, created quite a stir. The Land Rover Discovery 4 was the worthy winner but many of you debated the results on our website forum (www.practicalcaravan.com/forum) and wrote to us.
The awards presentation at Woburn Abbey was attended by people from the car industry, and representatives of the equine and boating press, whose readers also tow and follow the awards. Special thanks to Ifor Williams (www.iwf.co.uk) and (Suzuki www.suzuki.co.uk) for the loan of the horse trailer and sports boat, respectively.
If you missed it, you can buy the August 2010 back issue by calling 08456 777 812.
