Just making sure my outfit sounds ok?

Towcar:Peugeot 307 hatch, 1.6 110hp, diesel.  Kerbweight:1347. Max Tow:1350. 85%:1145.

Van:Abi Dawnstar 2 Berth, Length:16-18ft inc. hitch. Weight Unladen:700, Max Laden:900.

If i'm adding this correct the 3.5T I can pull on my license is the kerbweight of the car and the max laden of the van(as long as van is not heavier than car)? Or is it the max laden of car and max laden of van?

As i'm way under my tow limit will my car be ok pulling this van?  Does anyone on here tow with a 307 hatch?

Many Thanks

Sounds ok as far as weight ratios go. You mention "I can pull on my licence." If you passed your test before 1997 you can go up to 8.25 Tonnes (all full laden to that weight) so you are well within the limits. The car and van match is 67% so it should be an east tow.

So you're looking at the max gross weight of each (fully laden) and not more than 3.5Tonnes.
