We tow a Compass Echo caravan behind our 1.4l turbo diesel Ford Fiesta.

The van is a small 2 berth (11'6" long) model, but it has all the bits needed for a comfortable holiday. We have 2 awnings to choose from (we don't always bother), one is a full awning whilst the other is a light-weight 'roof only' awning which just gives us that extra bit of sheltered space.

It's stable and reasonably economic (35-45mpg whilst towing). The van cost £2500 second hand, about 4 years ago.

If anyone wants a look we'll be at Moira Furnace and Shrewsbury festivals.
