  1. I have a 4x3 trailer and i'm wondering is it worth doing up and keeping to use with My Bay next year when its finally on the road again after ! 14 years ! i've only had it under resto for 71/2 years though ! LOL . How handy are they and would a 5x3 be a better job . cheers mick

    We have just bought a small westfalia trailer to carry things like firepits, wood and other items of clobber you tend to carry round as having them in the van makes it a mess and also a tad unsafe should you brake quickly.

    I reckon, with the right trailer, they suit the bays down to the ground!
     
  3. i want a trailer for the wife ... i mean fire pit and wood
     
  4. i've used little camping trailers for years. It depends on how much stuff you need to carry. Can be a right pain on small lanes and its so small you can't see it so its impossible to reverse with it on. I take it or leave it at home and use the roof rack but it depends on how far and how long we're going for.

  5. Mine has a towbar and as I do track days i am considering using it to tow my bike on a trailor to these events, however i have been told it would be likely quicker to tow my bay with the bike.
     
  6. I tow a Puck... very handy... easy to tow...
     
  7. I tow a Westfalia funeral trailer (8ft x 41/2ft x 4ft) to most shows to carry stock and camping gear. Wouldn't be without it. :D

  13. We have a little trailor and with 2 kids couldnt be without it!! :-[ :-[ Even tow it around behind the car now cos that isnt big enough anymore! ::)

    once you have a trailor you wont go back!! ;) ;)

  15. We have kids and would not be without ours, it especially takes a lot of hassle out of setting up in bad weather as we can leave the kids and dog in the van while we get everything out of the trailer and set up

    Im sure it would be very handy but also feel that your taking too much if your needing a trailer. I wouldn't personally want to trailer a trailer about :)
