Been a long term reader of the forums but not posted so here`s the first  We have a Honda CRV 56 plate diesel and looking to buy a new Sterling Europe 565. Checked the tow limits and think we may be ok. Any readers currently pulling anything similar?

56 plate is the Mk 2 version with the wheel on the back. Its the upgraded floorpan model with the 100kg noseweight limit (up from a weedy 60kg)
     It has a 1500kg tow limit. It tows at 30mpg (diesel)

     We've had a variety of CRVs and we've never had a problem towing with any of 'em. We pull a big Fleetwood with ours, (1500kg) steady as a rock even in adverse weather conditions.
     You'll be fine with your Europa, the newest ones max weight being 1490kg.
