Yes - obviously as long it's a braked trailer and you have the right categories on your licence. My 200TDi 90 quite happily towed a Jaguar XJS on a 4-wheel trailer - the whole lot must have been around 3 tonnes - although you will know it on hills smile

3500kgs is also the stated towing capacity from the manufacturer.
Break that at your peril (and your insurer's delight)
