Hi Folks,
My wife and I are seriously considering purchasing a 4 berth caravan for our young family and was looking for some advice as complete newbies.
My car is a 2014 Peugeot 308 estate 1.5 diesel. The V5 states it has a technical premissible towable mass or trailer braked 1300kg.
The Vin shows the following numbers 1870kg, 3170kg, 1 1050kg, 2 980kg
I know as much as I won't be able to tow much due to the restriction on my licence 3500kg combined weight.
Would I be right in saying that my car would be ok to tow a Bailey Orion 2012 430/4 MTPLM 1247kg
Our budget is about £10k to get a caravan and wanted your expert advice, unfortunately changing the car isn't really an option as need it for work so was hoping to make it work and the caravan needs to be in budget and big enough for 2 adults and 2 primary kids.
Appreciate any advice on the above and please feel free to point me in the direction of good starter caravans within my budget that would work with my car
Thanks folks
Paul
