Buying an Avondale Leda Quantock 4/5 birth on Sunday its about 1989 model i think. Just wondering if anyone knew what sort of weight they are? Been told by the people selling it, i should have no problem pulling with our Renualt Megane Scenic 2.0rxe, but id still like know the proper weight as well. Any other info greatly appreciated too.

Cheers

I wouldn't have thought you'd have a problem towing the caravan as Avondale Leda's are quite light caravans.
Found this on the net Click_here and Click_here ( weight in description ) .
If you were to go by the weight's i've found , if you loaded the caravan to the maximum you would be towing at 91% , so with sensible packing you should be able to get nearer the recommended 85% .

Just got back from having the towbar fitted as only fairly recently bought our car too! Went for a Witter bar thanks to some sound advice from this site.

Thanks for the info and advice. Roll on next weekend and our 1st weekend away in it! Hopefully!
