The towing limit is exceeded by 195 kg!
It is not allowed to drive with this Coachman.
Make sure the towing limit is correct.
We now give advice based on the assumption that the legal maximum towing weight is higher for your car and that the car should be allowed to tow this caravan!
The Peugeot Partner Tepee 1.6 HDi with a Coachman Amara 450/2 with an actual weight of 1395 kg is a match suitable for most journeys, sometimes with some limitations.
The motor preformance of the Peugeot is in general very moderate but for your use maybe sufficient. The weight of the Coachman with a normally distributed User Payload (200 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), kgis quite heavy. Proper and careful loading is essential and don't drive too fast. Remember to load your caravan correctly, insuring that the noseweight of the caravan is sufficient and the weight is distributed properly!

Actual Weights
- Coachman Amara 450/2: 1395 kg.
- Peugeot Partner Tepee 1.6 HDi: 1707 kg.
- Noseweight: 75 kg.
- Actual weight ratio: 82%.
Performance
- The engine's performance is generally (very) moderate on flat roads (performance score to compare 96 points).
- Speeds of 58 mph (93 km/h) to 65 mph (105 km/h) are often quite possible.
- There is only very moderate power at low engine speeds (score to compare 95 points).
- Acceleration from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) is theoretically possible in 44.7 sec.
- In the mountains the performance is generally (very) moderate (score to compare 39 points).
- Performance is not great on steep mountain roads. Hill starts more than 8% requires experience from the driver.
- On motorway inclines the speed drops despite high revs.
- A speed of 41 mph (66 km/h) is usually possible on most motorway inclines.
Weight
- The towing limit is exceeded by 195 kg (check this in your vehicle documents).
- If you passed your driving test after 1 January 1997, a B driving license is enough.
- The caravan is too heavily loaded.
- Weight ratio between the laden caravan and the loaded car is 82%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 94%.
- The risk of snaking at higher speeds, strong side winds and thoughtless driving exist. Even if the combination normally feels stable, the forces by deflection side to side are so great that it could be dangerous. Only if the driver has knowledge of and experience in driving a caravan it should be safe to drive. Proper and careful loading is essential! An electronic stability system in the car and / or on the caravan is recommended.
- Recommended noseweight is 70 - 75 kg.
- Towball limit is 50 kg (Check this on the type plate of your towbar!)
- Safe speed up to 56 mph (90 km/h).
- Stability and safety score to compare is 133 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 very moderate but for your use maybe sufficient.
- Proper and careful loading is still important!
- It's a good match, sometimes with some limitations.
Influence of User Payload on stability
Weight distribution and noseweight are vital in obtaining a stable caravan.
Distribute the User Payload by yourself in the caravan and the car and then find out the stability rating of your loading configuration.
