A very light car by any standards. I have the diesel model with a 1450 engine. Is it practical to tow the Camplet Concorde?. I understand that the Camplet in question is 250kg and that we have a further 250kg available when the trailer is loaded.
That sounds quite a lot when the trailer is loaded.I think we may well need to have the trailer braked.
What does everyone think? Is this combo a step to far? Would love to mate this up if possible.
Having watched the blurb from Camplet ,can one put this unit down wet without the bed getting soaking wet and then put up again in the rain , again not getting the mattress wet? Would like to hear from users on this issue.
I'm retiring in a couple of years and have this unit down as a possible maybe.

Doesn't seem to show my car which is a 54 plater Audi a2 with the diesel engine. Perfect mechanical condition serviced by Audi since new.

Car will tow 500kg no problem. Your car handbook should quote max unbraked trailer weight, I would have thought it would be over 500kg so you would be ok.

There is a trailer tent forum on this website, post your questions about the Camplet on there & you should get the info you require.
