How heavy is the caravan? For others: what is heaviest thing you've towed with a standard rear frame (unmodified car)

Nice to have someone who really knows this stuff. We were all posting on believes rather than knowledge. Is there anything that I can do from abroad without requiring to weld or any intrusive labor intensive operation and still toe 1500Kg. Maybe getting a stronger than OEM hitch. Will that help...

For sure. I gave the SR1 future plans to motivate why I would not considere straight away the switch to model y. I was thinking maybe by upgrading the towbar I can keep the model 3 and also move around the ep3. But you pretty much answered this as well... Today I went to the MOT equivalent with...

I'm thinking of scrapping the 20" Uberturbines and Pirelli tires from my (soon to be delivered) M3P in favor of 19"x9.5J ET34 wheels with Michelin PilotSport 4S 265/35R19 (square setup). I was able to find plenty of info about ET, J, tire sizes and so on but nothing (at least not consolidated)...
