Hi

The maximum permissible weight loaded for the current model is 1900kg

Most recommendations are that the van should be no more than 85% of the Tow car's manufacturers stated Kerbweight.

If you were very experienced the most you should got to would be the van being 100% of the Towcars Kerbweight.

i.e

Sensible (85%)is a vehicle heavier than 2235kg

Cheers
