Hello everyone,

I have searched online and haven't really found any useful info, I'm looking at maybe getting a tent trailer to use for work so I don't have to commute anymore, say the trailer weighs 850 kilos, does that sound an acceptable weight for a 1.4 Corsa to tow? Can't find any info on here or anywhere obvious, thanks for any replies

This is what I'm looking at if your interested

If you look in the cars manual it will say it at the back

Iv been through the maunal before, and just went and got it from the car to check it again to make sure, it only gives advice on towing cars, not actual permissible weights

look at the plate under the bonnet. Take gross vehicle weight away from gross cobination weight

Sorry that works if you are full loaded.

So gross combination weight is the maximum car + trailer. So if your trailer is 850 then take that from the gwc and what is left is the maximum your car can weigh when loaded.

Thanks for that Digger that's just the kind of info I needed!

Out of interest does anyone know any good places to get tow bars from?
