Car trailer to borrow in Bucks

I'd normally hire one from here:

...but I'd rather give the money to a Locost Builder.

Anyone got one they would loan for a day? It needs to be reasonably small (ie light) as I've got a 3.5 tonne restriction on my license (ie I need a B+E test).

You can borrow mine but I'm in Beds near J12 on M1, let me know if any good?

It complies with your small and light request although its now very wide after its extension!

What are you sticking on it?

You can borrow mine, its fine for a locost up to say 550kg with Sierra size track, trailer is in Uxbridge.

Mark: I need to shift an MR2 - about 1200kg - and an Escort mk3 - about 1000kg. Sounds like I'll need something a bit more substantial?

carpmart: It's a bit far North I think, but thanks for the offer. I'll plot the route tomorrow though and make a decision, unless anyone else has one and wants to earn some beer tokens?

Afraid so, to heavy for my trailer,

the axle is rated for 1800lb and wheels 3500lb but the wheels would rub on the bed

I think the weight requirement would rule my poor little trailer out! Its fine for a BEC but 1200kgs would kill it!
