Also available to any Buyer, would make it a lot easier to collect car

B&B Trailer is a converted single axle Braked Caravan Trailer, B&B Trailers it has brand new wheels 165/55/13, new jockey wheel, compression strut for the Tow Ball/Brakes, new mudguards, brakes have all been serviced and adjusted new return springs fitted
I have painted the chassis Black/Silver & removed and sealed/refitted the Aluminium bed it has steel ramps and and winch

I spent over £300 on parts to get the trailer road worthy, it still has the towing capacity plaque on the chassis and is rated 1200kg gross weight

My MNR fitted on now problem with near 3 foot to spare and around 4" either side of the wheels on the bed
The inside width of the bed is 113cm

total length of bed 422cm

I towed my car all the way to runcorn and back no problem & it was totally steady on the motorway

£300
