We have a 04 reg Renault New Scenic 1.9DCI and are thinking of taking up caravaning. Has anyone any experience of towing with this car?

Thanks, Jim.

jim, check your weights very carefully.i nearly got a scenic a few years ago and the dealer could not tell me the figures i needed.did a towsafe check and found the scenic weight a little light

For Scenic models Renault set a rather low Maximum Train Weight, the maximum weight for loaded car and caravan combined. The limit is between 2900 and 3000 kg. Kerbweight for a scenic is about 1350 kg, adding a family with camping gear leave about 1100 kg max for a caravan
