Default P38 as a Tow Rig?

Greeting
As a short time lurker I want to question the board
I am considering a '00 - '02 RR (just love the look), but am wondering how many, if any have towed a car on trailer. The specs indicated thatit isn't an issue, but I'd like some owners opinions.

Thanks in advance!

What are you wanting to tow, how heavy, how far and how often?

Mike – car weighs 3.3k & 2k trailer.
Towing would be rare maybe 3x a year, but the distance would be 400-600 miles in a weekend.

Under no circumstances is it advisable to use a NAS Rover as a dedicated tow rig, they just aren't appropriate. Insufficient braking, underpowered, etc.
