- Noseweight: 50 kg.
- Actual weight ratio: 10%.
Performance
- The engine's performance is generally very good on flat roads (performance score to compare 285 points).
- Speeds of 82 mph (133 km/h) to 87 mph (140 km/h) are often quite possible.
- There is more than enough power at low engine speeds (score to compare 246 points).
- Higher revs (2000 rpm) are usually not necessary on flat roads, under most circumstances.
- Acceleration from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) is theoretically possible in 9 sec.
- In the mountains the performance is generally very good (score to compare 370 points).
- No problems are to be expected on steep mountain roads (up to 30%). Not even on Hill starts.
- On motorway inclines higher revs (2700 rpm) are needed.
- A speed of 78 mph (126 km/h) is usually possible on most motorway inclines.
Weight
- The towing limit of the Jaguar 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 10%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 11%.
- The chance of snaking is small even at higher speeds.
- Recommended noseweight is 50 kg.
- Stability and safety score to compare is 350 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 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.
