Looking to buy a car to pull a caravan...

I am looking at buying a second car that will pull a caravan. I haven't bought the caravan yet. I am considering a 2015 or 2016 diesel car, but as I've never owned a diesel car before, I'm concerned I could be buying trouble, even from reputable dealers.

Is it possible to buy a 9- or 10-year-old petrol car to pull a caravan, and what make of petrol would be the best? I understand the weight etc to pull a caravan.
