Just returned from the Micro Marathon over the Pyrenees that I was acting service mechanic on.  My 20 year old Espace Quadra was used to tow a trailer and rally Fiat 500 from UK to Toulouse and back again after the event.  (I was supplied a Fiat tow vehicle for the event as part of the sponsorship)

The Quadra with over 176,000 miles ran fine, was very comfortable, quiet, and even though it was well loaded internally as well as with the car and trailer, towed well at very high speeds, and still returned over 27 mpg.
