Default Towing with g6et??

Hi all, I have towing question. I have a g6et with a heavy duty towbar rated at 2300kg, and I want to tow a car trailer and old vw bug ( it's for the wife- don't ask), the hire trailer will have brakes equipped, but doesn't have swaybars.

I know the weight is going to be about 300kg on the safe side of the limt, but I've only ever towed car trailers with swaybars in the past, should I allow for this too, or will it not affect the capacity?

I will probably load the beetle on backwards to keep the weight on the towball better too.
