Just been on Caravan Club website and found something which I find confusing (so much so I have emailed CC to ask them for confirmation)
It says on their European Speed Limit section that in Spain on Motorways, if your combination of Car & Caravan is under 3.5 tonnes the speed limit is 50mph/80kph but if your outfit is over 3.5 tonnes it is 62mph/100kph.
Previously I have driven a motorhome with a 750kg trailer which I always thought was limited to 55/90 because I had a light trailer on-has this rule changed recently as I assumed it applied to all Car/Caravan combinations (Which would have a trailer above 750kgs as standard)- ie limited to 80kph?
I have checked via Google, N332 website and virtually everywhere I can think of and nowhere does it say a unit of over 3.5 tonnes can go at 100kph except the Caravan Club website. Have they got it wrong? Is it still 50mph/80kph?
Off down to Spain soon and don't want to get pulled for speeding! Anyone know the facts and/or live in Spain with a caravan?
