I've had a quick look on the web and I would say the best thing to do is look in your handbook for an accurate towing weight, there are variables dependent on age and model etc.

My advice to you would be to get a Land Rover Discovery TD5, I tow on a weekly basis and have used lots of different vehicles, I think the disco is one of the most capable vehicles I have ever towed with, and contrary to popular belief in nearly 35000 miles of use have never had a single problem, I put this down to good servicing and looking after it.
Agree - we've towed with a Disco for years now.
