Unladen weight 1240kg

max. on rear axle 523kg
gross train weight 2690kg

That's right, so it's essentially the unladen weight that is the kerb weight, a few kilos of tools and fuel are neither here nor there. The gross weight is the maximum safe weight of the car fully laden (internally). The gross train weight is the maximum weight of the car plus anything it is pulling, as you can see from the fact that it is equal to the gross vehicle weight plus the gross braked trailer weight. Your caravan will need to fall within the trailer weight limits, according to whether it is braked or not.

The kerb weight and the unladen weight can be assumed to be the same. There may be small differences (one may include a driver and a full tank of fuel, and the other may not) but they are minimal.
