There are at least two questions here.

1) Will your license let you do it?

A quick look at http://www.dvla.gov.uk/drivers/dl_towing_trailers.htm
suggests that the answer is a) yes, if you got your car license before
1997 and b) yes if you got your car license since, provided you
upgrade to B+E entitlement

2) Will the contruction and use regulations let you do it?

Dunno. I suspect that will depend on what the Mitsubishi manual says

There is also

3) Will your insurers let you do it?

And there is only one way to answer that.
