right dont get this as the mam of the trooper is something like 6100kg max towing weight is 3500kg
so with that in mind you wouldnt be able to tow anything or am i looking at this in the wrong way ? and can a new driver drive a trooper or is that not its mam
i know you can have a 4250kg mam max over vehicle and trailer |
The MAM(GVW) of a trooper is about 2600KG _________________ |

My Dad was a trucker all his life and at one point even held a record for the size of load he carried. I did my "test" under his watchful eye - and it was scarier than being with any instructor! I had a lot to live upto as my brother is a trucker also! I still hate reversing the things into small spaces hehehe. |

as long as your car and trailer combined weigh no more than 3.500kgs you can tow on a new licence if you passed before 1997 you can have a combined weight of 8000 kgs not with a trooper though as mr plod wont be very happy _________________ Isuzus are immortal.

Please also bear in mind that when you are calculating the weight for towing that you must include within that figure the weight of All occupants. _________________ Hienkel Tourist 103 A1
