Yeah, the Fleet company is starting to look like an easier option as you guys suggest They will hold the V5 and should be able to help and, indeed have before for getting the extra number plate made up for the Van.
I've just been hanging on for Ford, believing that the reply is moments away, as I havn't had a chance to get hold of the Fleet Guys.
Evenstephen, I am just hoping that the "not approved" bit in the manual is just a misleadingly phrased recomendation because that is the only mention ANYWHERE officially that the car may not be suitable.
The more I google the more convinced that all is good for towing as there seems to be a lot of talk about the presence of a towing weight?max train weight on the VIn being confirmation that the vehicle IS Type Approved
Still have a nagging thought that I perhaps have unearthed a bit of a Ford foobar here and not sure how I would stand legaly when arguing the Toss with their lawyers in the case of an accident.
The manual is back in the car Zafiral but will double check what the weights given stand for in the morning.
Here's the plate itself in the mean time:
