Skoda win two Tow Car Awards

Yet more awards for Skoda, this time coming from Practical Caravan, who in association with The Camping and Caravanning Club and What Car? towed an astonishing 41 different vehicles in a quest to find the very best towing cars of 2010. So it’s with great pleasure Derek Slack Motors can announce two of the winners... the Skoda Octavia Estate 1.6 Greenline (with outstanding fuel economy of 64.2mpg and low C02 emissions of 114g/km) won the ‘Green Award’ while the second award in the ‘1575-1724kg’ towing category was picked up by the Skoda Superb Estate 2.0 TDi 170SE.

Judges were also impressed with the Octavia Estate’s, head and legroom and spacious boot, while the Skoda Superb Estate was also highlighted for it’s clever use of space and luggage as well as being a tremendous stable towcar.

So if you’re looking for fuel efficient, environmentally friendly tow car, or a powerful work-horse towing between 1575-1724kg, Derek Slack Skoda in Teesside is your answer. With record numbers of holiday makers also said to be staying at home this year, and caravan ownership on the increase, Skoda look set to be a safe bet for anyone towing a caravan or trailer tent during the summer.
