The towing limit is exceeded by 150 kg!
It is not allowed to drive with this Lunar.
Make sure the towing limit is correct.

We now give advice based on the assumption that the legal maximum towing weight is higher for your car and that the car should be allowed to tow this caravan!

The Honda CR-V 2.0i aut. with a Lunar Clubman 530-4 with an actual weight of 1350 kg is in general a good match and suitable for all journeys on all kinds of roads.

The motor preformance of the Honda is in general more than sufficient. And also the weight of the Lunar with a normally distributed User Payload (200 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is not too heavy, if the caravan is well loaded.

Weight

  • The towing limit is exceeded by 150 kg (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 77%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 87%.
  • There is a small chance of snaking at higher speeds, strong side winds and thoughtless driving. Even if the combination normally feels stable, the forces by deflection side to side are great at high speed. For drivers with knowledge of, and experience in driving a caravan it is safe to drive, but proper and careful loading is still important! An electronic stability system in the car and / or on the caravan is worth considering.
  • Recommended noseweight is 75 kg.
  • Safe speed up to 56 mph (90 km/h).
  • Stability and safety score to compare is 152 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 more than sufficient.
  • If the caravan is well loaded 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

Barry reviewed a Honda CR-V 2.0i aut.:

"2007 euro summer touring season, 5,276 km mixed driving, motorway N road and mountain roads. Auto performed well, easy performance on motorways and N roads with Eriba 420. Mountain roads Alt > 1,000m and gradients av. 12% lot of shunting through the box for correct gear, o/d off not much difference. Recorded fuel consumption: not towing, as per book 10.3 km/lt. Towing performance 60% motorway, 15% N roads, remainder mixed driving at altitude, o/a: 7.3 km/lt
Overall very satisfied, can easily tolerate gear shunting on mountain roads. Would recommend auto for anybody doing long distance touring and "tugging", dissapointing low volume fuel tank, restricted range."
