Not sure why but in the UK the nose weight of some Volvo models is quoted as less than in other markets but for the same car and towbar....

For example the Mk 1 XC90 is rated in the UK as 90Kg but in Australia it is 180Kg. The only difference is that in some states of Australia the nose weigh must be a minimum of 7% of the trailer weight....

Hence I would personally not worry about exceeding the nose weight by a small amount (and have done on a number of occasions).
