It is legal, (just) but I would not be recommending it. Only the Maximum technical permissible laden mass is relevant, because that is what the traffic police will look at, but additionally, when loaded with your possessions ready for a holiday, it is unlikely to be much below that limit. The 1285kg miro is your ideal target, but you would have to travel very light indeed to achieve that. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

I knew the caravan loaded by taking into account all weights going in it and the motor mover etc was around 1580 ... I would say its too heavy and not worth the risk based on my experience, but it did tow it and in general handled it. The only thing to note it was putting a lot of strain on the clutch when pulling away. On asking most people seemed to be towing up to 1450 with no concerns. |
