Towing limits

[~Wingnut~]

hi mr wingnut here can any one tell me were to find a web site that gives official towing limits ( ie weights) for a caravans thanx

Do you mean the weight that your specific car can tow? Or the weight that your driving license allows?

Does this help?

The people on this forum are very knowledgeable about this - and friendly!

You need to find the weight your car is allowed to tow then the weight of the caravan.

Hi Toureman (Mr Wingnut's still cooking)

Yeah hubby said about finding out how much our Vauxhall Vectra would tow, he was hoping there was a website that gave the info for each type of car, but he failed to ask that in his question (he's a learner on this site) so I think he is just going to ask on the forum that Ethel kindly suggested.

Thanx for your reply :o)
