Maybe a folding caravan or trailer tent with all the mod cons, Conway or Penine are quite good, they have plenty of room warm & dry. I used one for a few years & pulled with my Scimitar, I dont know it was on the back sometimes, also didnt make much difference on fuel, good hunting?

Look at the Venus range of caravans if you are looking to buy new, modern lightweights designed to be towed by smaller cars.
Our Lunar Zenith 4 may be an option if you can find one, as they are no longer made, but maybe still a little heavy for your Reliant with a max laden weight of 1150kg.
The only other option would be to look at the tiny Freedom caravans, fairly basic with not many frills compaired to their big brothers, but very lightweight.
The same Staffordshire dealer that imports and sells the Freedoms, used to also stock Stieckerman(SP?) Caravans, another fairly lightweight continental caravan that may have something in the range suitable for your needs.
Are you looking to buy New or Secondhand?
What sort of price range do you have in mind?
I may be able to think of other options for you once these questions are answered.

The Freedom caravan dealer at Stafford also sells Secondhand models from trade ins, its a couple of years since I last visited him, around 2009 in fact, but he did have a few that maybe within your price range, or know of someone who has.
They would certainly be within your towing limits, and come in 2, 3, or 4 berth layouts.
Fairly damp proof too, as most are made of a single seamless fibreglass body.
