The vehicle is rated to tow 3500kg with a nose weight of 150kg (in the UK) which was reduced from the earlier nose weight of 250kg.

I'm sure someone told me that it wasn't 3.5t (2.7 rings a bell)

They are all 3.5 tonne towing capacity. The only modern Land Rovers that aren't 3.5 tonne are the Freelander/Evoque. Unless the hybrids are different. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

I think so, yes, because the RRS is less than the GVW and the trailer + load is within the rated towing limit. The two together are less than the gross train weight. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
