Its always best to check the cars handbook, as the tech info will state somewhere what the maximum tow weights are for both braked and un-braked trailers. You will also find the maximum noseweight the car can accept.

The Dandy Designer should be fine. It is braked which is quite unusual for many small trailer tents and has a max loaded weight of only 500kg.
We had a Designer and it was great.

I know someone with a Punto who used to tow the 6 berth dandy 750kg max weight. I realise a range rover will tow it better but if your not in too much of a hurry it will cope.
I used to tow a Freedom caravan with the mini metro. Fine at 50 to 55 mph on the motorway and only need 1st on one hill. I'd tow it 100 miles each way no problem. Strange thing was we never met much in the way of traffic.
