I passed my test 2010 so I have a B,B1,F,K,P licence I'm wanting to know if I can tow a trailer..
i have looked and I'm getting mixed reviews I have read some where I can tow upto 750kg as long as I don't exceed the 3500kg's combined weight trailer/car my car is an astra coupe 1.8 52 Reg
Any info would be a great help

That is correct.
750kg regardless of the other weights.
Over 750kg so long as the convoy doesn't end up more than 3500kg and in addition the tow car must be heavier than the trailer.
Astra Coupe 1.8 can tow up to 1400kg but without +E you are limited to the weight of the car as it'll probably come in lighter than that, so I would guess 1300kg of car and luggage and a trailer of that less than that.
