My sis has offered us her caravan, it is a Abi Ace Viceroy, not entirely sure on the weight because the plate had nothing on it. There is another plate by the hitch, I am assuming the numbers on it are the weights two numbers one about 800 the other 1000. Possible model number 340759a. Galvanised chassis.
If the weight is 1000 max there is a lot more caravan for the weight then some of the modern ones we have seen.
It is a fairly old van, a dining area/come bed at one end and the seating area/come bed at the other.
Oven, grill and two ring gas hob, fridge, shower room with portable loo.
Has got some leakage in one small part of the roof, couldn't see up top to see the problem, not sure if cooker works, has fire and heating but brother in law wanting to use the heating system in his other caravan. So we would need to find our own heating system.
Hot water does not work as the owner before them damaged the pipework underneath, so he just had it so he couldn't use it.
Plenty of space but wondering whether our car would be ok for it.
We have a Seat Cordoba se tdi saloon, 1.9 diesel 2003.
Mass in service 1357 (is this to do with tow weight)
I'm looking at my log book and there are no tow weights printed either braked or unbraked. Thought I had read somewhere before it is 1200 max but cannot be sure.
Would our car tow it, not sure if he said van was 19ft?
