Weight

The Citroen C5 Tourer 2.0 Hdif with a Bailey Pageant Bordeaux with an actual weight of 1321 kg is in general a good match and suitable for all journeys on all kinds of roads.

The motor preformance of the Citroen is in general fairly good. And also the weight of the Bailey with a User Payload (197 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is very good.

Actual Weights

Performance

 

Weight

  • The towing limit of the Citroen is more than sufficient (check this in your vehicle documents).
  • If you passed your driving test after 1 January 1997, you will need a B+E (or B96) driving license.
  • Weight ratio between the laden caravan and the loaded car is 70%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 79%.
  • The chance of snaking is relatively small at normal speed, if the caravan is well loaded.
  • Recommended noseweight is 75 kg.
  • Safe speed up to 62 mph (100 km/h).
  • Stability and safety score to compare is 181 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 fairly good.
  • 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.

Distribute the User Payload by yourself in the caravan and the car and then find out the stability rating of your loading configuration.

User Reviews

Craig Gill reviewed a Citroen C5 Tourer 2.0 Hdif:

"My C5 163 bhp tourer hdi plenty of pulling power for the steepest of hills went touring round Scotland to find out. but stability wise not so good up to 50 mph ok but after this problems start from 50 to 55 it starts to feel light on the steering from 55 to 60 it starts to feel like it wants to wonder especially on motorways .had it checked out on suspension and struts by a local garage said everything ok .I can only put it down to the length of the caravan. had an Avondale before sorter van no problems. also tried reloading caravan made no deference..been a caravaner for some 24 years so its not inexperience either "
