just had a look at the v5c for our Rav section 4g, 1480kg as it came from the factory, all fluids plus fuel, but no driver, passengers or luggage.  With the van in tow we have driver and passenger plus tv, trolley jack etc in the Rav. This must take our Rav up to at least 1600kg's, not actually weighed our van but would think it to be somewhere between 1300-1400kgs when we go away (1215kg from the factory) As I said before the Rav tows it very well. As for the tow bar I bought and fitted a witter with fixed towball/twin electrics (£111.00 Atlas towbars in Wigan), the rear door opens fully without the van hitched up, but is restricted when hitched (you can still open it but only a bit)
