Damo8604 - We had to get rid of our C4 grand Picasso to tow a 5 berth Bailey. It has a towing weight of about 1300kg. Very poor for its size. but that was the 1.6HDI. I would suggest double checking what yours can tow.

Hi Damo. It will tow it physically. I had to look in to this as the wife is a real stickler for the law. Although the actual weight you are towing may be under the limit, if you get pulled over for any reason, it is based on the max capacity weights permissible. So the caravan may physically weight say 1250kg at that moment in time, but if the plate says it can carry 1550kg then thats what it will be classed as! hense why we ended up changing.
The C4 is great for towing. Espicially with the anti roll back for pulling away on the hills and the auto handbrake off. I do miss ours

But on the same note, as someone who is mid 30's and generally looks young, i have yet to be pulled or even looked twice at. I have got many friends who have not got the licence to tow over 3500kg but do regularly and have never been pulled at all.
