Hi all does anybody out there know the maximum trailer nose weight for a mk1 maverick as I need to tow a tractor and I dont want to kill my car.

How big is the tractor and how big is the trailer? if trailer is big enough can you can move the tractor around a bit to best suit... or even put the tractor on back wards to make it sit right, thats what i have to do to make it look right :wink:
