Hijacked another thread with this earlier but thought I'd put it seperately. Does anyone know what sort of price a car trailor would go for. Obviously it would have to take a low slung performance car (zed/rx7). Also any advice on what type I should look for, and is it possible to tow with a decent car or would I need a 4*4? Thanks Dave

dont know about prices, but my mates races alfas, and trailers his to tracks. He uses an alfa 156/7 (never remember which!) to tow it - 2.5ltr v6, so most cars with a bit of power should be able to do it.

Hi mate,

 

Was having a wee shufty through Ebay for much the same thing.

 

Towing this with a decent size family saloon should be no problem.

 

Might be a help.

Alan........

That Ebay one is not big/strong enough.

Its only 12ft bed

14ft min needed.

Your Rex might be OK but a 1500kg ZX???? No way.

the one I borrow is a 14 ft job.

My Peugot 406Est pulls it , only just with 300ZX on. But it may not actually be legal!!LOL

Check out the wiight rules n regs before you buy.

Buying a tailer is like buying a Zed . You need to get the best you possibly can afford.

Old tired trailers are about and they are just like old tired Zeds... A pain in the butt.

The consequences of loosing a wheel on the Mway due to bearing failure etc are severe. Wrecked trailer.....wrecked racer.... wrecked tow car...

Well you get the drift.

I have been moving cars on trailers for the last 30 years so I know wot Im on about.

Bateson. Brian James Ifor Williams are all good names to look for.

AVOID home build types.

Maybe this one then ??
