I would ring Bailey caravans and talk to them , tell them the problem your having and see what they can suggest .

5 people (ones a baby but we havent taken a cot) - even taken windbreak out.

Are these weights ever wrong at the weighbridge?

there is now nothing in the central walkway except a plastic table top.

Only thing in the fridge is 1ltr of milk

All clothes is in cupboards so nothing excessive.

all kids toys have been taken out.

I am really struggling.

The only thing I can now take out is clothes or bedding......

I am jinxed - just tried Bailey's and they are on their summer shutdown

Doesn't sound like you have too much stuff.  Maybe the weighbridge is not working right

van is a 6 berth - but the weighbridge guys have assured me that there weights are correct. I have 2 small  (half full) 6kg gas bottles and a spare wheel in the front locker. This will be the furthest that we have ever towed therefore I feel a little worried.

Other half is just taking our quilt out and will replace it with a small size - but I really didnt think we would need to go these extremes.

Cant think of anything else to take out so will call again at weighbridge on the way.

BTW - anyone fancy buying an unused Kayak - please let me know as I only bought it for this hols.

Found these details for the Ranger vans

Have you ever had any additional equipment fitted that you have not accounted for?

It seems very odd!

A spare wheel is quite heavy.  

Referring to your earlier noseweight problem, you would help that by carrying the spare in an underslung carrier.   However that doesn't help with the present problem.

I take it you did not check the weight previously?  Or have you got more stuff with you this time?

For next time, check the weight of the empty van first (there could be a problem there) then weigh everything as you pack it.  It can be quite an eye-opener to see what it all weighs!
