Which BJ trailer will a Vortx fit on?

Looking at an MNR maybe as an alternative to a Striker but not sure what size trailer it would fit on. I assume not a minno but anyone use a trailer for their car and if so what one?

I was going to put this post up yesterday but didn't get time, I'd also be intrested to know whats the smallest trailer someone has got an MNR on

I have been looking at the Micro Max with the folding front arm so it will fit inside my garage






Renetom's MK Indy looks like a good fit on the Micro Max

I tried getting a Vortex on my old Minno and it was too norrow (if that helps).

I may buy a trailer before a car so probably go for an ' a max ' that's a bit wider to cover all options

I've got a superb covered A max. Brilliant trailer.

Yep was the same for me, if i put on the narrow sierra wheels it would just squeeze on!

So does anyone know if a Brian James Micromax will fit a Vortx?

I am going to view one Saturday morning. Going to try and take the vortx if that weather is nice. A little nervous about getting onto the ramps with for the first time.

Thinking about going for a Woodford lightweight trailer instead.. they offer a 10′x6’1” = 3.05 x 1.85 which seems more suitable than the Brian James Micromax (1.76x3m) which I think is just going to be too tight or the Brian James C2 BLUE 3.2 x 1.8m which is overall 4.68m long and too long for my garage. The Woodford lightweight trailer LW-032 10′x6’1” = 3.05 x 1.85 is 4.34m long thats far more suitable for storing inside a garage. The other plus point is it only weights 340kgs.

Some sizes I took from the car.

Approx.

Wheelbase 2385mm
Outside edge of the tyres 2920mm
Overall Length 3400mm
Wheel Width 1750mm
Body Rear width (Rear Arches) 1780mm
Body Front Width (Front Arches) 1780mm
Lower Nose height (Required clearance) 60mm
Nose overhang from leading edge of tyre 250mm


Woodford lightweight trailer LW-032 10′x6’1” = 3.05 x 1.85 - Looks perfect, just need to make sure the nose will overhang the front of the trailer bed.
