My young lady just happened to look at the Gliding Club Webcam a few months ago and took this screengrab,I was on the way from the Hangar to the Launchpoint but stopped off/parked near the clubhouse to 'use the facilities'.
The Suzi is an early 2005 GV1600 Auto and the glider is a 1977 DG200,I have a half share in it and fly it when weather and covid allow.

So true Richy :D
Although I have to admit that I usually slum it there with our Sportage CRDI,which is our main towcar,I would not like to do too much serious towing with a 1600 SWB Auto vitara LOL.

No I think you'd be limited by the towing capacity of the little gv lol! Only one thing for it bigger GV 😂

Late reply Richy but I do sometimes think about a Suzi with more power - shame we could not have found a 2.0 GV LOL
