So my VW transporter van has a maximum towing weight of 2000kgs. So this means I can only tow trailers with a gross weight of 2000kgs. Now we have a new trailer at work with a gross plated weight of 2600kgs. If this trailer is empty can I tow it? I thought if the trailer is plated above my towing weight the law does not care if the trailer is empty of stacked with bricks it's plated over my towing weight so you have the capacity to be over weight. Am I correct? __________________ Previous -03 S40, 04 V70 D5, 04 V70 D5 Sport, 05 V50, 07 S60 D5, 09 V70 D5 R design, 12 XC60 DrivE, 15 V60 D3 Current- 05 XC90 D5 Exec, 12 XC70 D4 AWD Se Lux, 14 S80 D3 Se Lux
