WispMan Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Your car will have marked in the specification the max towing weight. This needs to be greater than 1100kgs. I assume car is 1800cc not 18cc! Otherwise seems fine and within recommended guidelines.

Wunny Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 It'll be fine! Just make sure the nose weight is right. 80kgs max for my 1. 6 Picasso, I would think yours would be the same, but check the specification.

t5van Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Enjoy what you have, you will see allsorts of outfit combinations and be tempted, but at the end of the day its what you do, not what you do it in that makes the difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Rigden Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 We had a Picasso before the passat, we went from Newcastle to Cornwall several times. As previously stated check your nose weight and enjoy. Quote 2014 VW Passat 2. 0TDI pulling a 2009 Bailey Ranger GT60 460/4.
