Vauxhall Zafira Noseweight - Anyone know?

[HomerMarge]

Have this as a courtesy car at the moment, was told can have one with a towbar if my car repair takes longer than expected. Anyone know the noseweight in particular(I pressume 75kg) but hope it is higher?

New model Zafira?

Old Model Zafira?

Petrol or Diesel?

All Zafiras, whether old or new, petrol or diesel, have a 75kg noseweight limit.

If its the old diesel model pulling their van is going to be a bit iffy with anything in it.

MIRO 1119kg (MTPLM 1350Kg)

Thats why I asked.

It was 2006 model 1.9 diesel, but looks like the answer has been answered 75kg....doh!

Thanks

You don't say whether it's a 120hp or 150hp 1.9 diesel but the 120hp manual will be quite close to the limit for towing a caravan with an MTPLM of 1350kg. The automatic has a slightly larger margin and the 150hp version even more.

it's auto, but not sure on bhp as it is a courtesy car? Maybe our car will be back quicker than we thought, it is just a fall back if we get into Feb and still have no tow car. I think nose weight is now the issue, we have tried to get it down , but no matter what we do with loading the caravan with the regular items in it, we are always around top 80's (see previous threads).

Thanks

Sound like you'll need a sack of potatoes in the back of the caravan then, LOL
