Westfalia Essen Drawbar length ?

  1. Anyone got one of these with the longer drawbar ? If so can you measure it ?
    Very pleased with my trailer but it is a mare to reverse as it's so short and you can't see it. Time you see it it's too late. Suspect the longer one has an extra foot and looking to extend mine about the same.
     
  2. Put a marker pole on one corner
     
  3. Bought a Fresnel lens off ebay for under a tenner, sticks in the back window and is suprisingly effective, However, no getting around the fact trailer is very short and a longer bar would improve that no end. Living in the narrow lanes of Dartmoor reversing is a fact of life ( a view not shared by holiday makers or young mums on a school run ) Will probably be guided by how much clearance i have when its stood on end in the garage, just interested to know how much longer Westfalia deemed to make them ?
