Car Transporter Trailer Project – £200 - Nottingham

Finally decided to sell my purpose built car transporter trailer, due to lack of use/tow car, having owned it for about 15 years.

Twin suspension-axled trailer (10” wheels), with over-run cable operated brakes from a reversing hitch unit.
Bed length about 3.7m long - need to check that dimension, but have carried 4.2m long Sciroccos on with front overhanging.
Has good strong hinged ramps attached.
The trailer nice and light, and has the bed set low between axles with an unusually long wheelbase, resulting in it towing exceptionally well.


Unfortunately the trailer been stood a few years during which time it has deteriorated… It rolls around OK, but has known issues:

Brakes definitely need significant attention (I would say a full rebuild* required)
Jockey wheel doesn’t wind up or down (though can move it in the clamp)
Mudguards a bit bent/dented, and brackets are a bit battered/broken, but all functional.
The lights are all broken, although the wiring is present (but not checked, I just used a trailer board).
Tyres have tread but assume are knackered due to age.
Needs painting (appears to be just surface rust)

*ISTR my local trailer spares place said it used an Alko(?) braking set up, and he could get all the parts.













Overall has potential to be useful purpose built little car trailer again WITH WORK, and IMO better than starting with some dodgy old caravan chassis.

Looking for £200 ono (collected, from a few miles North of Nottingham).

Please reply or PM if interested.
