The towing limit is exceeded by 130 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 1330 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 User Payload (135 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), kgis not too heavy, if the caravan is well loaded.

Coachman Amara 450/2 | |
Actual Weights
- Coachman Amara 450/2: 1330 kg.
- Peugeot Partner Tepee 1.6 HDi: 1707 kg.
- Noseweight: 75 kg.
- Actual weight ratio: 78%.
Performance
- The engine's performance is generally (very) moderate on flat roads (performance score to compare 99 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 97 points).
- Acceleration from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) is theoretically possible in 43.6 sec.
- In the mountains the performance is generally (very) moderate (score to compare 45 points).
- No problems are to be expected on steep mountain roads but the performance is not that great. Hill starts are possible on steep slopes up to 9%, but do require some experience from the driver.
- On motorway inclines the speed drops despite high revs.
- A speed of 42 mph (67 km/h) is usually possible on most motorway inclines.
Weight
- The towing limit is exceeded by 130 kg (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 78%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 90%.
- 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 65 - 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 152 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.
- 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.
Distribute the User Payload by yourself in the caravan and the car and then find out the stability rating of your loading configuration.
