You have a Maximum Towing Weight of 1200 kg so i doubt you will find a six berth light enough,i would find another car.

Is the 1.6 diesel a 5 door hatchback or 5 door estate?  If it's the hatchback it has a kerbweight of 1357 kgs. whereas the estate kerbweight is 1391 kgs. An 85% match to the hatchback would be 1157 kgs. and the estate is 1182 kgs. The hatchback has a lighter bodyweight compared to that of the estate. I tow with a Ford Focus 1.6 TDi estate with the 109 bhp. There is another version with a bhp of 90 which is rather useless on torque really which is needed when climbing hills. The estates also have disc brakes both front and rear which the hatchback doesn't. Having discs all round has the extra stopping power with a caravan in tow.

My match is about 92% but I have had 6 years towing experience with a smaller van first. I have provided a link for you to make the calculation.
