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.

Will my Fiat Grande Panda hybrid's starter wear out?

Hello,

I recently got a Fiat Grande Panda hybrid, the car is great, but I'm worried about this constant switching from the three-cylinder engine to the hybrid battery when driving in the city. Won't the starter wear out very quickly? It does it very often, constantly switching from electricity to gasoline!

Thank you!
