3 trailers for sale

two of them are the ones kipper was selling in this thread:

and a third is single axle unbraked on 750kgs suspension.

None are fitted out for moving cars. The two that kipper sold are as seen in his photos, the third currently has a huge box on it made out of OSB, but couldnt take a car without reinforcements.

Im thinking 500 for the biggest which has two newish 1300kgs axles (2600 all in) and an antisway hitch, 400 for the builders type one which is 2000kgs, and 200 for the final one. This last one might be suitable for a BEC if you can get channels on it and keep the weight low.


I should point out that the cheap one, once the box is removed, is just a T shape of 2" steel, with wheels on one end and a hitch/skid on the other.

Do you have any more pics of the £200 trailer? Does it have suspension?

My licence only allows me to tow 750Kg (I think) so a small trailer and my BEC race car should fall under that weight.

hi mate. No pics of the cheap one for now, its well buried in the garage. However, it does have suspension, alloy wheels and new tyres, 3 all in. The suspension was new, and the unbraked tow hitch was new. It is a good starting point for a light trailer, but does need modifying including welding brackets in.


I would estimate it weights 60-80kgs at the min. The osb box on it is 3.6m long, 2ish wide, and 1.2 high, and is about 6 or 7 pieces of 9mm osb, so maybe another 60kgs in that if you kept it.

Imagine a large T shape, roughly 1.5m between the inner face of tyres, and roughly 2.3m from wheels to tow hitch. So basically, would need triangulating, and some channels to put the car on.
