The Fiats and Mini's are pretty light and not too pricey if you look around. I picked up 1990 VW Cabriolet to tow which tips the scales at 2300 lbs. They are still the first generation 'Rabbit' so some parts are getting tough to find but most mechanicals are available. They aren't too noisy, have A/C, keep the water out very well and even have air bags and a built in roll bar. What more could you ask for? Smile
