A caravan with a gross laden weight of 1200kg or less.

Beware sellers that give you the mass in running order or unladen weight.


Pack lightly... Power to weight wont be brilliant.

A 1.5 is quite a small engine for a tow-car. It will be working quite hard pulling any caravan because of the wind resistance, especially in a head-wind, and this will seriously affect fuel consumption.

Have a look in your handbook for the max towing weight, and check you car's weights on your V5 document or on the door pillar.
