I've been asked by a family friend to move a caravan from portsmouth to cambridge its 18ft in length and weighs 1900kg will this be ok behind my bongo with regards to weight, i have a class 1 hgv licence so towing it isn't a problem its just the weight i want to be certain about before giving them a thumbs up ?
Thanx

Yes does seem to be the wrong weight they've given you~~mines almost 20 foot but only weighs around 1,000kg~as Mike said 1600kgish is no problem at all to tow.
