    It is how you load it to get the correct noseweight for the car, 85kg should not be a problem, my Octavia Estate 2.0TDi 4x4 has a max of 75kg, I load it up and get between 70-75kg no problem at all with a very stable tow.

    When I picked up my Sprite Alpine 4 in 2006 from the dealer I did check it and was 60kg empty, my new Compass Omega 482 which I took delivery in November 2015 was just under 70kg empty, but it all changed when it was loaded with the gas bottle, battery etc etc., then I balanced it out with the load and things we carry to get 70-75kg. I always drain the water heater when travelling, that is around 9kg weight at the front saved.
