Not too sure of the kerb-weight.

The maximum (braked) towinglimit won't be a lot,to be on the safe side stick to below 85% of the kerb-weight (or mazimum towing limit) whichever is lowest

Doesn't help you much though :lol:

I keep being told it should be on the chassis plate, never seen it though.  Try Towsure as they supply towbars.
