I towed a Nova with my 1200 Corsa, it was fine. I wouldn't like to do it on a regular basis in case the clutch didn't last so long, but it was capable once moving.

i towed a mk4 escort once (in my old 1.5td), with a rope, and i struggled. found it hard as hell although it was my first and only experience of towing.

my local garage uses a fiesta 1.1 to tow cars and does it with ease.....

I towed a Mondeo with my 1.0 Nova. Nearly ripped the back of my car off.

Good fun.
