Renault Scenic 2.0 16v aut. Bailey Pageant S6 Monarch
Actual Weights
Bailey Pageant S6 Monarch: 1239 kg.
Renault Scenic 2.0 16v aut.: 1710 kg.
Noseweight: 70 kg.
Actual weight ratio: 72%.
Performance
The engine's performance is generally good on flat roads (performance score to compare 204 points).
Speeds of 71 mph (114 km/h) to 77 mph (124 km/h) are often quite possible.
There is only moderate power at low engine speeds (score to compare 142 points).
Slightly higher revs (2500 rpm) may be necessary under normal conditions on flat roads.
Acceleration from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) is theoretically possible in 22.3 sec.
In the mountains the performance is generally good (score to compare 210 points).
No problems are to be expected on steep mountain roads. Hill starts are possible on steep slopes up to 14%.
On motorway inclines higher revs (4200 rpm) are needed.
A speed of 60 mph (97 km/h) is usually possible on most motorway inclines.
Weight
The towing limit of the Renault is 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 72%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 82%.
There is a small chance of snaking at higher speeds, strong side winds and thoughtless driving. Even if the combination normally feels stable, the forces by deflection side to side are great at high speed. For drivers with knowledge of, and experience in driving a caravan it is safe to drive, but proper and careful loading is still important! An electronic stability system in the car and / or on the caravan is worth considering.
Recommended noseweight is 70 kg.
Safe speed up to 62 mph (100 km/h).
Stability and safety score to compare is 174 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.
If the caravan is well loaded 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.
