The suitable column indicates whether we found most, some, few or none of the model variants to be legal towing vehicles when paired with our horsebox (carrying a 500kg horse) and driven by a "cat B only" licence holder. This is due to engine type / size and trim level. This list is not exhaustive but represents a number of popular vehicles that we have researched.
AS WITH ANY VEHICLE IT REMAINS THE DRIVERS RESPONSIBILITY TO ENSURE THEY ARE, AND REMAIN LEGAL.
