hi folks newbie here - i have a 2wd ford kuga 2ltr diesel - can someone tell me would it be a safe match with a Abbey Vogue 2, 495 2008 - thanks in advance for any replies
Hi, we need more information to give you a sensible answer.
What is the kerb weight of the car?
What is the max tow weight of the car?
What is the max weight (MTPLM) of the caravan?
Have you got a B+E driving licence?
The car weights will be on the V5, the weight plate on the car and in the handbook. The caravan weight will be on a plate by the door of the caravan.
car - max permissable mass = 2250
mass in service 1672
technical permissable mass of trailer = 1800
mtplm of caravan is 1480 and i have had my license for 30 yrs so can drive up to 7 ton - hope you can work out these figures - thanks
Caravan is an 88.5% match so it will be fine, presumably your car is the 140 bhp version, we towed with a Galaxy with that engine and it was very good for towing.
