How much weight goes in the caravan?

What is the MTPLM that will give a weight that can be put in the van,can you put some things in the car

MTPLM is 1710kg.  Can put a fair bit in the car 

Not an expert by any means, but, with figures like that I would say this caravan isn't a good match for your car. Sorry to be negative. 

Given those weights I would give serios thought about the match ,sorry

Thanks - So is 150kg unrealistic for weight of items to go in the caravan?

150kg is not unrealistic in the van.  The problem is that the plated MPTLM of the caravan is greater than the maximum towing capacity of the car.

I'd look for a van that has an MPTLM of 1500kgs - there are quite a few out there

. . . or a replacement car!

Thanks everyone so far for the feedback - All pretty much as I thought that a new car maybe in order.  This is where my ignorance kicks in though! If the MRO is 1440kg and I restruct the additional weight to 150kg then this keeps it under the 1600kg limit of the current car.  I understand the MPTLM is above the cars limit but if I am not going to get the van up to that weight does it matter.  Am I being ignorant!

Write your comments here...Possibly partially. The police and vehicle inspectors do stop checks on caravan outfits and they would only consider what the kerb weight is for the car and what the permissible MTPLM is and not what the actual weight is, (unless it is over the MTPLM and that is a different issue). The MTPLM of the caravan should never be more than the kerb weight of the car, ie 100%

Thanks John - The Kerbweight of my car is not an issue i think as it is over 2000kg.  It is the towing capacity of only 1600kg that seems to be the issue.
