paula butterworth reviewed a Daihatsu Rocky - 2.8 TD (75 Kw/101 bhp). Modelyear: september 1994 - january 2001) and a Vanmaster Ovation 480 ET of 1480 kg.

The towing capability for this outfit is:
= 92%* = 93 km/u = 27%

Bought my faithfull diahatsu as my first car to tow with. It has been reliable and has given no problems with towing. It is a basic, no frills car that is economical to run. It has given me confidence in towing. I am now seeking a new tow car, and would have another diahatsu but they don't make them anymore !!!!

Daihatsu Rocky - 2.8 TD with a Coachman

bob mayne reviewed a Daihatsu Rocky - 2.8 TD (75 Kw/101 bhp). Modelyear: september 1994 - january 2001) and a Coachman Amara 530/4 of 1530 kg.

The towing capability for this outfit is:
= 90%* = 92 km/u = 25%

my present 2001 tdx is my second daihatsu the first being a 1984 short wheel base model, both vehicles proving very reliable. towing the amara is a breeze and there's never a control problem the daihatsu is capable of handling any situation which is probably why they were so popular with the agricultural community. it's a great pity they stopped making them. A tough rugged tow car.
