Practical ownership tips
Towing suitability
At 1,000kg MTPLM, your tow car needs a kerbweight of at least 1,176kg to meet the 85% guideline. Check towing capacity by reg or use the towing calculator to compare a specific car and caravan.
Available payload
The Tab Metropolis has approximately 250kg of user payload. This must cover all personal belongings, water, gas, awning, and accessories. Overloading affects handling and is illegal.
Before you buy
Request a habitation check or damp survey for any used caravan. Check the service history, tyre age, chassis condition, and whether the CRIS registration matches the seller. Specifications vary by year and trim level.
Is the Tab Metropolis a practical choice for touring?
The Tab Metropolis is a distinctive teardrop caravan designed for couples or small families seeking a lightweight, aerodynamic tourer. With an MTPLM of 1000kg and a length of 4.7 metres, it prioritises ease of towing and modern aesthetics over the expansive storage found in traditional models. It offers versatile layouts including dinette conversions and compact fixed beds within a well-insulated shell suitable for all-season use.
- Compact teardrop dimensions with a total length of 4.7 metres.
- Lightweight MTPLM of 1000kg suitable for a wide range of tow vehicles.
- Flexible sleeping options for two to three berths.
- Choice of Dinette Conversion or Compact Fixed Bed layouts.
- Aerodynamic profile designed for improved fuel efficiency.
Worth knowing: Storage capacity is limited compared to conventional caravan designs. The teardrop shape results in reduced headroom in specific interior areas. Price points may be higher than standard caravans of a similar size.

Common mistakes to avoid
