Trailer Hire in Leeds area
Hi, can anyone suggest somewhere to hire a trailer in the Leeds area, and what I should expect to pay? (to fit an MK Indy).
I'm doing a track day on 25th Nov at Oulton Park and I'd rather trailer it than drive it (mainly because I don't think I can get an
MOT sorted in time, and it's run out!)
Guess I'd be looking at a weekend rate because I'd have to pick it up Friday evening and drop it off presumably Monday as I'd guess
places would be closed on a Sunday.
This all assumes that I can get a towbar on my car in time too!

if those fall through then theres always horsforth trailer centre (or similar name), the place is run by a very nice chap, very flexible  He doesnt
mind counting late sat til early monday as a single day. Was £20 in the past but dont quote me, ive been a few times so maybe he likes me. 
If you really cant sort a towbar in time, i might be able to help with the towing down there. Ive missed trackdays myself in the past due to not being
able to get a towbar!

I got a trailer from a place in swillington...
I think it was called swillington trailer centre, think it was pretty cheap, but more importantly roadworthy etc!

Do you mean this place

Horsforth Towbar Services
If not, I bought my towbar there, cheapest prices I could find locally for a big name towbar type rather than the dodgy Chinese type. The link has a
£10 voucher off.
I better bookmark this thread, I'll need a trailer to move my car when I move house in a week or so.
ETA: There's a place in Leeds called Autowbars. They rent out beaver tail trailers. Can't remember the price and their website isn't
working but the phone number is in the Yellow Pages I think.
