Correct answer
7,500 kg for the motor vehicle and 750 kg for the trailer.
7,500 kg for the motor vehicle and 750 kg for the trailer. C1 authorises motor vehicles other than those in categories D1 or D, with MAM above 3,500 kg and no greater than 7,500 kg, designed for no more than eight passengers in addition to the driver. Category C is separate and does not have that 7,500 kg upper limit. A C1 combination with a trailer above 750 kg falls under C1+E with its own conditions; 12,000 kg does not replace the C1 motor-vehicle limit.
