    Do you really need to have a full trailer?

    If not I would suggest you get an A frame towing dolly.

    My Dad got one recently and it's excellent. It hooks onto the axle and pulls the car along the road. He got it on Ebay for about £150 - £200.

    Just stick a serch in for A frame towing dolly

    Car trailer as in trailer to tow behind your car, or as in trailer to put a car on.:confused:
    It would need to carry a lot more than 600kgs to put a car on it.

    This site may help you.

    Hello youwot

    I'll move your thread to the 'Motoring & Public Transport' board.

    Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere(please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies. If you have any questions about this policy please email [EMAIL="abuse@moneysavingexpert.com"]abuse@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL].

    Regards

    Remember to check your driving licence to ensure you're allowed to tow a trailer exceeding 750kg GW (trailer and load) if it's going to weigh more than that.
