The Landrover Freelander Td4 with a Elddis Avante 362 with an actual weight of 1164 kg is in general a good match and suitable for all journeys on all kinds of roads.
The motor preformance of the Landrover is in general more than sufficient. And also the weight of the Elddis with a User Payload (162 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is very good.

Performance
The engine's performance is generally fairly good on flat roads (performance score to compare 179 points).
Speeds of 67 mph (108 km/h) to 73 mph (118 km/h) are often quite possible.
There is sufficient power at low engine speeds (score to compare 175 points).
Slightly higher revs (1800 rpm) may be necessary under normal conditions on flat roads.
Acceleration from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) is theoretically possible in 26.6 sec.
In the mountains the performance is generally fairly good (score to compare 170 points).
No problems are to be expected on steep mountain roads. Hill starts are possible on steep slopes up to 14%, but do require some experience from the driver.
On motorway inclines the speed drops despite high revs.
A speed of 55 mph (89 km/h) is usually possible on most motorway inclines.
Weight
The towing limit of the Landrover is more than sufficient (check this in your vehicle documents).
If you passed your driving test after 1 January 1997, a B driving license is enough.
Weight ratio between the laden caravan and the loaded car is 61%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 70%.
The chance of snaking is small even at higher speeds.
Recommended noseweight is 70 kg.
Stability and safety score to compare is 225 points.
If the caravan starts to snake you should reduce your speed and slow down directly! Lift your feet off the accelerator and brake gradually. Hold the steering wheel into a fixed position.
Conclusion
Performance is more than sufficient.
Safe driving is possible.
It's a perfect match!
Influence of User Payload on stability
Weight distribution and noseweight are vital in obtaining a stable caravan.
