A 2002 Zafira will be the previous model to the current one. If the 2.0DTI has air conditioning, the max. permissible towload is 1050kg.

thanks lutz.how come air con makes a difference

Without air conditioning the limit is slightly higher at 1100kg. The reason is that the 2.0DTI engine in the Zafira has a cooling issue (that's why the towload limit is so low) and the air conditioning produces extra heat which must be dissipated somehow.
