Landrover Freelander Td4 aut. Bailey Senator Arizona
Performance
Weight
The Landrover Freelander Td4 aut. with a Bailey Senator Arizona with an actual weight of 1406 kg is a match suitable for most journeys, sometimes with some limitations.
The motor preformance of the Landrover is in general more than sufficient. And also the weight of the Bailey with a normally distributed User Payload (200 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is pretty good.

Landrover Freelander Td4 aut. Bailey Senator Arizona
Actual Weights
Bailey Senator Arizona: 1406 kg.
Landrover Freelander Td4 aut.: 1893 kg.
Noseweight: 80 kg.
Actual weight ratio: 74%.
Performance
The engine's performance is generally fairly good on flat roads (performance score to compare 162 points).
Speeds of 66 mph (106 km/h) to 73 mph (117 km/h) are often quite possible.
There is sufficient power at low engine speeds (score to compare 176 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 31.1 sec.
In the mountains the performance is generally sufficient (score to compare 149 points).
No problems are to be expected on steep mountain roads. Hill starts are possible on steep slopes up to 16%.
On motorway inclines the speed drops despite high revs.
A speed of 51 mph (83 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, you will need a B+E (or B96) driving license.
Weight ratio between the laden caravan and the loaded car is 74%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 84%.
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 80 kg.
Safe speed up to 62 mph (100 km/h).
Stability and safety score to compare is 164 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 good match, sometimes with some limitations.
Influence of User Payload on stability
Weight distribution and noseweight are vital in obtaining a stable caravan.
