Actual Weights

Performance

 

Weight

  • The towing limit of the Jaguar is sufficient (check this in your vehicle documents).
  • If you passed your driving test after 1 January 1997, a B driving license is enough.
  • Weight ratio between the laden caravan and the loaded car is 69%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 77%.
  • The chance of snaking is relatively small at normal speed, if the caravan is well loaded.
  • Recommended noseweight is 65 - 75 kg.
  • Towball limit is 60 kg (Check this on the type plate of your towbar!)
  • Safe speed up to 62 mph (100 km/h).
  • Stability and safety score to compare is 183 points.

If the caravan starts to snake you should reduce your speed and slow down directly! Lift your feet off the accelerator and brake gradually. Hold the steering wheel into a fixed position.

Conclusion

  • Performance is good.
  • Safe driving is possible.
  • It's a perfect match!

 

Influence of User Payload on stability

Weight distribution and noseweight are vital in obtaining a stable caravan.

Distribute the User Payload by yourself in the caravan and the car and then find out the stability rating of your loading configuration.

User Reviews

Russell reviewed a Jaguar X-Type Estate 2.5 V6 aut.:

"Generally a good match and a pleasure to drive and tow but have reservations when towing in steep hill arreas when auto bbox gets easily mixed up and have to revert to changing gear manually."
