The Peugeot 206 SW 1.4 with a Caravan leeg: 750 kg with an actual weight of 950 kg is a match suitable for most journeys, sometimes with some limitations.
The motor preformance of the Peugeot is in general moderate but for your use maybe sufficient. And also the weight of the Caravan with a normally distributed User Payload (200 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is good.

Caravan leeg: 750 kg | |
Actual Weights
- Caravan leeg: 750 kg: 950 kg.
- Peugeot 206 SW 1.4: 1274 kg.
- Noseweight: 60 kg.
- Actual weight ratio: 75%.
Performance
- The engine's performance is generally sufficient on flat roads (performance score to compare 138 points).
- Speeds of 60 mph (96 km/h) to 66 mph (107 km/h) are often quite possible.
- There is only very moderate power at low engine speeds (score to compare 56 points).
- Slightly higher revs (3700 rpm) may be necessary under normal conditions on flat roads.
- Acceleration from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) is theoretically possible in 30.9 sec.
- In the mountains the performance is generally sufficient (score to compare 110 points).
- No problems are to be expected on steep mountain roads but the performance is not that great. Hill starts are possible on steep slopes up to 9%, but do require some experience from the driver.
- On motorway inclines the speed drops despite high revs.
- A speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) is usually possible on most motorway inclines.
Weight
- The towing limit of the Peugeot 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 75%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 88%.
- The chance of snaking is relatively small at normal speed, if the caravan is well loaded.
- Recommended noseweight is 50 - 60 kg.
- Towball limit is 44 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 178 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 moderate but for your use maybe sufficient.
- Safe driving is possible.
- It's a good match, sometimes with some limitations.
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.
