Hi Voltorc
I agree with you, seen that to many times out and about on the roads.
I can tow my van down the motorway at 60 mph and not feel a thing, and easy enjoyable motoring.
Fully laden am only doing 50 mph max, as that to me is my safe limit at that max weight that's to Newark tractor show on the A46.
To be honest most of the roads around here to the rally's sites are single carriage and country roads, and hilly, so i never really get above 30mph most the time lol.

On some brands the vehicle can tow 2000+kg if the vehicle is at its MIRO. If you add in luggage then the difference between the MIRO and the extra weight needs to be subtracted from the maximum towing weight
For example in addition to the driver in a MIRO, you have another adult at 75kg and luggage at 75kg which equals 150kg. This is subtracted from the maximum towing weight of 2000kg so in essence you can only tow 1850kg. I know Vauxhall used this calculation and not sure about other brands of vehicles.
