Hi All,
I bought my first caravan a few months ago and have taken it away 3 times but the car i am using is not the best to tow the caravan so was wondering if anyone know a website that i can find out the pulling weight of any cars that i might buy as im going to change my car this week. Thanks

what weight is your caravan V? That is a good basic starting point, divide that weight by 0.85 to give a starting weight of your car. Your caravan max weight should be (as a guideline depending upon experience) 85% of your car's weight.
As NTH says try the matching service.

I wonder if the OP realises that their question has been moved from the section it was originally posted in. Not the cleverest move by a moderator IMO. How are Versa supposed to view the replies? Perhaps the mod could put a note to the OP saying that it has been moved and to where.
