The Honda CR-V 2.2i-CTDi with a Standaard Caravan with an actual weight of 1200 kg is in general a good match and suitable for all journeys on all kinds of roads.
The motor preformance of the Honda is in general good. And also the weight of the Standaard Caravan with a normally distributed User Payload (200 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is very good.

Honda CR-V 2.2i-CTDi Standaard Caravan
Actual Weights
Standaard Caravan : 1200 kg.
Honda CR-V 2.2i-CTDi: 1914 kg.
Noseweight: 70 kg.
Actual weight ratio: 63%.
Performance
The engine's performance is generally good on flat roads (performance score to compare 238 points).
Speeds of 76 mph (123 km/h) to 82 mph (132 km/h) are often quite possible.
There is more than enough power at low engine speeds (score to compare 246 points).
Higher revs (1600 rpm) are usually not necessary on flat roads, under most circumstances.
Acceleration from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) is theoretically possible in 18 sec.
In the mountains the performance is generally very good (score to compare 275 points).
No problems are to be expected on steep mountain roads. Hill starts are possible on steep slopes up to 19%.
On motorway inclines higher revs (2500 rpm) are needed.
A speed of 66 mph (107 km/h) is usually possible on most motorway inclines.
Weight
The towing limit of the Honda 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 63%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 70%.
The chance of snaking is small even at higher speeds.
Recommended noseweight is 70 kg.
Stability and safety score to compare is 213 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 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.
