Smino,
Putting driving licences to one side.
The auto has a max tow of 1700kg. so as long as you keep the actual weight of the caravan at or below this, you will be ok.
My concern is your ability to do this.
If the k/w is 1579kg this would only leave you with 121kg for bits and pieces ???
As for the car itself it will not have a problem coping with the weight in respect of bhp and Nm.
The max tow is limited by the auto gearbox as the manual has a max of 2000kg.
As a guide my caravan has a max of 1630kg and i run very close to that, with my 163 auto.
I know there are a few others on here with heavy caravans who will offer their opinion.
As for the ATC a call to ALKO and Vauxhall would be your best bet.
Can't see any issue as one does the car the other the caravan.
Antara is not the only towcar with this system and there hasn't been any mention of any manufacturer having problems, only any forum i visit.
