Yep, I do.  Although not yet with my latest Kuga.

Have been using my Kuga for two years now to tow two different vans.

I did purchase a demo Kuga with all the bells and whistles but have to say I am absolutly delighted with the car in general and as the extra bonus it tows my caravan with ease and confidence,
best tow car I have ever had.Big smile

Just been towing with the Kuga (2.0 TDCI) for the first time.  Excellent tow car, although I am comparing with a 1.8l petrol toyota.  But you hardly notice the caravan (Lunar zenith 1300kg) on the back of it. 

On a 40 mile run I averaged nearly 32 mpg.  Which I thought was pretty good.  No problems with speeding up for overtaking tractors etc.

Hi Tinhutonwheels
                                  Been towing with my Kuga for 2yrs.I tow a pegasus 534(MTPLM 1482) and really happy with its performance. Have been to the south of France last year and the fuel consumption was 28.5 average. Will be going again soon and am looking forward to it.  On the return journey usually full of wine for the next 12 mnths,and the Kuga coped really well. Happy towing Thumbs Up
