Am I right in thinking you can only tow a certain proportion of a vehicles weight? If so whats the most I can tow with a Mk 4 Astra Van? Got a trailer and something to go on it, but think it will be too much.

I used a mk2 astra 5 door hatch to tow a heavy trailer(2 axle) with a mondeo on it, but was a bit dodgy!!
AFAIK it is just an advisory of 80% of the kerbweight or something not too sure.
