    Yep pretty much 750KG is the limit unbraked. Our caravan is loaded 1540KG and I know it is as we weighed it in early Dec but after looking at some Ozzie vans they are too close to the limit for my liking especially the GVM. I reckon a lot of people towing them need to be looking at Class2.

    Braked as others have said up to 3500KG depending on tow vehicle and don't forget your open road speed will be 90KMH and not 100KMH as a lot of people seem to drive at.
