Good idea I'll see if I can get it sponsored by Castrol GTX

You didn't swag those from my spare room did you...... they're exactly like mine.

Hmmmmm..... Most of my bits have arrived too....... could someone put the clocks forward a bit so I have a bit more light and a lot less cold.... just enough to stop the spanners sticking to me.

I am bringing a little toy to play with, I have borrowed it from work today, who else is coming out to play? It will be interesting to see you another time, Steve, I just hope that wicked Strines wind doesn't blow too much and we can all have a good nosy around your car, in fact I think you could give us an upgrade tour. Yep, that's it Steve's Tour De Upgrade.

Good Idea paul - over a massive drip tray....

I've been suprised by quite how much trailers of the same bed size can vary in weight between manufacturers. I stored Dave's (Darve) single Axle BJ for a few months last year and had it sat in my back garden alongside my Woodford lightweight. On level ground (grass) I could easily manhandle my Woodford to a different position so as to mow the grass under it but conversely it would take two of us to be able to pull Dave's trailer. Looking at the specs and Dave's trailer weighs in at 500kg empty whereas mine is only 320kg. Granted mine hasn't got the load capacity to carry anything much heavier than a westfield whilst the BJ will happily take the weight of a family saloon car and also has the advantage of pull out ramps and a centre deck, but if manoeuvrability is a key consideration then I'd recommend checking out the weights of the trailers from different manufacturers.

Mmmm that is a nice blue one next to it
