Hi ROG
I have a van conversion 3.5 and have come round to the thought that the easiest/cheapest way to get proper living is to keep it (very handy for the small lanes around us and tiny turning circle at the vets) and tow a small caravan just when I need it for weekend events.
I have a pre '97 full licence and its a Renault Master long wheelbase 2.5dci automatic. What's the largest/heaviest caravan I could safely sensibly tow with a nearly fully loaded van (I have checked on a weigh bridge, I'm still legal with horse + all weekend stuff and me) and could a caravan ever be too small for that tow vehicle (e.g. the GRP 750kg Freedoms)?
Thanks very much!!
BTW I'd go on a towing course anyway just to be safe as I've never towed before
