Help selecting tow car

Hi all,
I have a new Triton 430 GT and need to buy a tow car. The weight rating for the Triton 430 is 1200 kg.
As we live in Napoli, Italy we need the smallest car possible to tow the Eriba.
We are thinking of a 2010 Audi A3 (2.0) or VW Golf GTD. Will these autos be sufficient to tow our Eriba?

Any suggestions would be welcomed.

Thanks - Carmine

We have the same van and tow with a Renault Mégane. Perfect.

thanks for the info.... we live in Napoli, Italy, so we need the smallest (length) possible.
so far Audi A3 and VW Golf are good options.

I'm biased as I own a Skoda Yeti. It is built on the same floorpan as the A3/Golf and offers lots of space in a short vehicle length. It is a very nice towcar and very stable with its short rear overhang.
