Notes:
i) Do not exceed the motorhome gross
vehicle train weight.
ii) Do not exceed the maximum front & rear
axle loads on the Motorhome.
iii) Ensure the Motorhome front axle load is
never less than 42% of the total weight.
iv) Motorhomes with an MTPLM up to
3500kg which have European Type
approval can only be fitted with a type
approved towbar complying to
EC/94/20.
v) The limit for towing an un-braked trailer
is 750kg (based on VIN plate not actual
weight), this applies to a towed car.
vi) A car dolly with a car with a GVW over
750kg in place is considered as two
trailers, these are legal for use for
recovery but under the Road Traffic
Regulations Act 1984 the combination is
limited to 40 mph on motorways and
dual carriageways and 20 mph
elsewhere. A car dolly is not legal for
transportation (there is a very specific
difference between recovery and
transportation. Recovery is defined as
the removal of a broken down vehicle to
a place of safety).
vii) The maximum permitted vehicle
combination length is 18.75m, however
any combination must ensure
compliance with the turning circle
requirements of Construction and Use
regulations 1986 & 97/27/EC.
