V50 Cars: - Could anyone recommend a good small trailer?

jollywise · Jul 15th, 2009, 23:03

I've got a 2006 V50, and need to get a trailer. I've been looking at the ERDE flat trailers, they seem okay, but concerned i may have compatability issues with it?

can anyone recommend a trailer type.. and or stuff I should be looking out for.

it only really needs to carry camping stuff, BBQ that sort of thing.

many thanks in advance

The Erde type trailers (as from Halfords) would suit your needs. Probably comes flatpack but does not take too long to put together. All you need to get for it is a number plate. You can get covers and additional bits all from Halfords.

You could also try for one of the Noval Portaflot trailers currently on eBay. Just remember that there are about three different sizes of these trailers. I have one of these and it is about ten years old now. Just replaced the wheel bearings and wheels/tyres for a continental trip.

To save yourself a few quid and get yourself a quality trailer I would get a trailer tent that is no longer due to being unusable and have the trailer. These are far better quality than those dinky rubbish you pay £250 for....

If you want to camp in comfort just get a trailer tent full stop...you`ll never sleep on an air bed again..trust me!!
