My 1970 133 owners hand book gives a maximum towing weight. Its genuine Volvo towbar also states 1000Kg maximum. Even though your towing set up "looks ok", if you are unfortunately involved in an accident, checks will be made,your insurance may not pay out.
Your towed trailer, plus a car of equal weight to the towing car sat on it, will be too heavy in my opinion.
I have towed caravans which have been known to be too heavy, the amazon copes power wise and feels fine when the brakes are applied. Legally be careful!!!
