Hi all, just back from our jolly's down in Devon, second week a couple arrived towing a Bailey Senator S6 Indiana, motor mover,full size Isabela awning two bikes, table, chairs and all the usual parafanalia that you take on holiday.

the tug on the front was a 2010 Vauxhall Astra SE CDTI 1686 Turbo Diesel, I would think at around 108 BHP, surely this could not be a safe match? Out of curiousety and being a little concerned in case he was a novice I asked how it performed on the
road, he's reply was to tell me it towed superb with no problems and they had recently upgraded from a Bailey Ranger, so obviously not new comers to the world of caravaning! Surely this would have been a bad match if not ilegal with the Senator having an MIRO
of 1259 and an MTPLM of 1495. 

Your thoughts.
