V70 AWD Towing a caravan issues.... HELP! V70-XC70 1998

Hello everyone. I have n issue and I have had no help really from Volvo
I am looking to purchase a small 2 berth caravan and intend to tow it using my Volvo AWD (98 model)

However I am concerned about the rear axle load, and cannot find any confirmation what is permitted.

Basically the caravan will exert approximately 60KGs onto the towbar which in itself will not cause a problem. However I will have an additional 60KGs in the boot of my car, and i am worried that this combined weight will be too much for the car (which already sits fairly low)

Any comments or suggestions are greatly appreciated

steve
