Kingster Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Now that I have an MX5 I'm looking to move up to a 4 wheel trailer as my current BJ MicroMax, while absolutely perfect for the Westy, is right on the weight limit with the MX5 on board. So I need something with a bed width of at least 1.75m (wheels are 1.68m - so room is needed) but no wider overall than 2.20m (my garage is 2.24m wide at the door and can't be modified). Length is not such an issue but a 3.2 - 3.5m bed would be ideal. A Brian James C4 126-2012 would be perfect and I think a Minno Max would just work too. The PRG MiniSport is not wide enough on the bed and the PRG MiniSport XW is 2cm too wide overall! Not sure of others, but just though I'd mention it to rule them out.

Rory's Dad Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 I had a Minno Max and my MX-5 was tight (et25 offset PR 1.2s wheels). In fact I had a couple of chips off the powder coat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingster Posted February 4, 2022 Author Share Posted February 4, 2022 Thanks Martin - I thought it might be tight. The car is a cheap track only munter - so as long as it fits, I’ll not be bothered about the odd mishap 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dommo Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 I think mine is a Minno rather than a Minno Max. If it wasn't lined up 100%, it wasn't going on! It would have been a bit easier if it was on the OEM 14s with 185 tyres, and the box wasn't in the way! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingster Posted February 24, 2022 Author Share Posted February 24, 2022 Too narrow sadly. They (like many) are 165cm bed width. Car no 2 is 165cm across the wheels so it’s just too “exact” to be practical really. Thanks though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
