The Vectra 3.0 diesel estate car is only an option for you in its manual form, not automatic. Early automatics with the Y30DT engine only had a maximum permissible towload of 1200kg. This was later raised to 1500kg when it was replaced by the Z30DT engine, but that would still not be enough to meet your needs. The manual variant has always had a 1800kg limit. An alternative would be an automatic 3.0 diesel saloon which has a 1600kg limit.

From memory the Vectra 3.0 V6 diesel hatch did well a couple of years ago in the CC Tow Car of the Year Tests.
