My point is I think sombody has allowed the R36 a higher braked towing capacity of 2200 due to its engine power and maybe because its AWD.
for example a regular 2.0TDI Passat wagon has 1500 braked. both are 750KG unbraked.
the weight, ground clearance and transmission are big factors that seem overlooked.
you put 2 tonne on the back of your golf it will be sitting on its bump stops with its nose in the air with a hand-span of tow ball clearance.
just saying try it out first with wind and hills.
