How many times have you seen a car with a caravan on badly weighed down but just at the back?
Almost any car you see with a caravan on will be low at the back where as a Xantia will stay flat. Its suprising that even big heavy cars that you'd expect to tow without a problem get weighed down, 4x4s and large rear wheel drive cars (e.g. Jaguars).
Who had the idea?

Yes, I have to say that towing a caravan with a Xantia is a pleasure simply because of how the suspension behaves itself. I also find the Xantia suspension is brilliant when moving delicate things around such as the antique grandfather clock I tranaported the other day.
Such is the quality of the suspension, a while ago I needed to transport an old and very heavy colour laser printer to it's final resting place. I had help getting it in the boot. One thing led to another and I completely forgot it was in there for days and days simply because the suspension did not let on at all there was an abnormally heavy lump in the boot!
Long live Hydropheumatic... It really is the best way to suspend a car.
