so long as you have a full license you can tow up to a certain weight. it should be on the back of your license

Aslong as everything inc your car is no more that 3.5tons your ok.

The problem you have is the car needs to out weight the item being towed.
So if you have a big car like a Volvo, Mondeo etc thats weights a goot 1.7 tons a good trailer (brian james) about 800kg, which leaves to a ton (should be less as stated above) to put on the trailer.

The key to be able to tow (as i havent got it on my licence) is having a very light trailer which is very hard to find.

I have a Volvo V70 T5 weight 1800kg trailer weights 300kg with leaves me 1.5 tons on the trailer to be legal and safe...
