The whole rig looked ill! Didn't appear to be very stable when changing lane. The D3 is very heavy to have up that high Richard

And the body of the trailer appears to be bowing under the load.
See he’s taken the precaution of leaving the drivers window open.It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

Must be a Diesel D3. A V8 4.4 D3 would be towing both.

Assuming that’s a Cherokee, looking at their towing limits very few are specified to tow 3.5 tonnes
That may be way over it’s towing limit!2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2
2015 - 2017: 2 x D4
2017 to date: FFRR SDV8
2023 to date: 2 x FL2 as “second” cars 🙄

It was a 2004, but I didn't see the model. I saw that list of towing specs before, very variably towing limits.Richard
