Trailers again

[CPS]

I'd happily pay the extra for the Nugent rather than listen to an Ifor rattling all day.
I had a load on my trailer a few weeks back so hooked in to the old mans ifor tri axle...... i nearly turn at the end of the road and went back and unloaded mine

 

[Stroppymonkey]

But again. Ifor Vs Nugent. Same flatbed trailer with sides and ramps. The Nugent is an extra £500 granted but to my mind all the "issues" with ifor seem to have been ironed out with Nugent and think the extra £500 is well worth it. Better tyres, less rattly, no annoying side lip, internal heavy duty lashing points as standard. It's easy to get caught up by price I agree but once you actually start looking like every thing you generally get what you pay for. Nugent is same price as Indespension I had a price for and the Nugent is better speced in my opion. Although the ifor plant GH1054 is very hard to beat.

The GH1054BT is my newest trailer. I’m very happy with it and it’s SO nice to have solid mudguards and steps built in. Been using a GD84 twin axle for years and although a lovely little trailer - different ball game!
We have a GD84 single axle with mesh sides and ramp which is a brilliant little trailer for boilers/oil tanks/Rayburn/Agas/IBCs etc and light enough to unhitch and move around in customers driveways. On my second one and wouldn’t be without it.
My TT2515 with mesh sides I’m less in love with. Awkward to load with the E10 and never seems to be big enough. Admittedly I bought it to be compliant to tow with Transits, but I’d upgrade it for a bigger one if the opportunity arose. My LM105 with mesh sides was a great trailer till we bought a tail lift van. We Bob tailed it and fitted a crane so now it is an LM805 that weighs nearly 2000kg . Not something you drag around for fun

No good for putting a dumper on but this just cam up on Facebook and looked quite good if you want a compact tipper. It's 6in narrower than an ifor so should sit nicely behind a pickup

A friend is importing/selling Temared trailers (he’s also a Bateson dealer, and doesn’t sell crap). He’s just put this on Facebook which looks a nice bit of kit, I’m waiting for a price from him and will report back!

I went and looked a Debon tippers yesterday as an option. Not for me though. All looked a bit Mickey mouse if I'm honest ,some nice features etc but it won't hold its value like the main brands and just doesn't look like it has enough steel in the right places. They're light but that's probably also their downfall.

 

[Stroppymonkey]

I would fancy trying one of these. Only good if you want a dedicated materials tipper, no good as a general purpose!

Less than 3.5t.
An Elise is only about 800kg max not sure on the other but say a tonne. Leaves plenty of slack for the box etc? Think a bv105 is like 800kg.

 

[pettsy]

If you said 2t for cars, 1t for trailer that leaves 500kg for bodywork and frame so probably not bad. Looks arkwardly tall mind!

They don't specify the towing vehicle...
Probably need C1 and tacho etc.
