Ride on mower and trailer pulled by 2005 1.9 TDI Diesel Golf?

noel123ie

Hi all

I have a ride on lawnmower which is 160kg and trailer which is 350kg empty

So combined wight of 500kg or so

I have a golf and cut lawns commercially, would pulling trailer and mower kill the golf or in particular the clutch?

If so Im looking at buying an 07 Navara or Pathfinder

I was wondering how come pathfinders are 2-3 cheaper than navara with same milage and age?

Thanks all
Noel

The golf would be fine. I've built extensions pulling full trailers of snad using a 93 golf with over 200,000 miles on it. You dont need a jeep for every little pulling job.

Thats only 510 kilos. That is about 82 stone weight or five fat birds in laymans terms. Haul away.

Thanks lads but why are the pathfinders so much cheaper as hope to buy a jeep at some stage anyways

Cos they're sh1te. Dont buy one, dont buy the newer type trooper either. If you're serious about a jeep, Toyota is the only way to go.
