Peace and quiet.....
Fairplay to her... Not many women would drive a disco never mind tow a tintent as well. If it ain't broke... Take it apart anyway, how else you gonna find out how it works

A couple of years ago when we were caravan shopping my wife insisted on the twin axle that the dealership had taken in as PX. (Was a bargain to be fair to her)
Only later when we got home did we work out that I wouldn't be able to drive the car/caravan due to licence restrictions so she had to tow it

Not quite the same but SWMBO has pinched my Disco to do an airport run to Gatwick and is then off to Crawley shopping.
She has strict instructions not to park in any tight spaces ( door dings are my pet hate )
I always park in the furthest possible space D3 Metropolis Bonatti Grey-Alpaca Leather-adaptive headlights-fridge-EGR blanking kit-Harmen Karden-Cruise-4x4 info enabled-Tinted Windows-Heated F&R Seats-Rosen rear Entertainment-LED'S everywhere -Smoked Side Repeaters-Rear Aircon-Vredestein Wintrac 4 Extreme-Puddle and Footwell Lamps-Stainless Steel Side Protection Tubes- NEW ASHTRAY ( thanks to dsd1036 )

My is currently sat on drive hooked up to our TA Unicorn ready for off tonight to France for a couple of weeks. Wife will tow the van and has in the past, I normally drive as the speed is a big factor, if she drove there we would get there when it was time to come home. At least she will drive with van in tow even if there are any issues.MY17 D5 1st Edition Namib Orange

I've often suggested that SWMBO might want to have a go with the van on the back - it usually gets the response "well if I could do it what would I need you for" at which point I usually shut up.

Fair play to her
mines always refused to drive my landies, however she does seem to be using the d3 a bit, should I be worried?
also no danger of her towing, hasn't got the license for it
