Surely this is illegal and quite dangerous.
So what are peoples thoughts on this here? I ask as I was considering buying an AU Falcon/Fairmont for such use but don't want to break the law.
Any input must appreciated :-)

It can be done without too much problem, but it needs to be setup well.
I generally tow with an RTV'd AU ute.
It has the 2300kg hitch, with a 4500kg tongue, and a WDH.
I also use an AU XR8 wagon now and again also with the 2300 hitch and WDH.
The ute is more stable than the wagon, but the wagon is still fine.
