Gordon1987 Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 My dad is generous.. but not that generous! Its worth too much for me to just have it. Plus I have my own covered trailer anyway so will have to be happy with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleggy the Spyder Man Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 really would have to get some black vinyl space shuttle windows on it if it was mine anyway good luck with the sale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTR2Turbo Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Good trailers but they are quite heavy. With a car loaded you really need a landrover Discovery or equivalent type vehicle to tow it. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon1987 Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 Yeah fairly heavy; I towed it with my Westy in it with my Audi 1.9tdi quite happily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTR2Turbo Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Yeah fairly heavy; I towed it with my Westy in it with my Audi 1.9tdi quite happily. happily - but are you sure that is legal? The trailer unloaded is around 1000kgs ? I thought you had to use the chassis plate weight of the car so another 900 kgs making 1900kgs. An A6 which is the heaviest audi with the 1.9 tdi is shown on caravan sites as only rated to tow around 1450kgs braked trailer. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon1987 Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 Happily - for the car to handle the weight, may not have been in the limits though... Hadnt checked the audi towing capacity, just seen it is 1900kgs so i was probably okay... http://www.parkers.co.uk/cars/reviews/facts-and-figures/audi/a4/avant-2001/22718/ But overall, yes it's a big trailer and it is up to the potential owner to decide how to tow it I suppose.
