Nose weight

[ColinS_5073777]

I have a Bailey Pagent Provence with a nose weight of 99kg but unfortunetely my towing car Volvo V70 Estate takes only 75kg. Is there anything recommended other than sell my car.

Why sell? Nobody says you MUST set your caravan up with a noseweight of 99kg. So long as you don't feel any instability at 75kg, use that figure.

I have a Mondeo TDCI towing a Provence. The max noseweight for the car is 75kgs. You just load to the noseweight of the van to that figure.

Hello again, Thanks for your comments on the Provence noseweight.

So you are saying that it depends on how one loads the front of the caravan ? So why do Bailey state that this model has a 99kg noseweight. Does that mean that you can load up to this figure, if your car is able to take it.
