Thank you all!!!
It is a (more or less) basic 750kg unbraked Trailer, custom made by a local trailer company after my sketches. LxBxH: 210x127x40 cm enough space for a small family going on a 3-weeks trip. The axle is a 1350kg KNOTT Rubber spring axle VG13-M, ordered with a LR rim hole circle, has an aluminium cover plate with a 500N gas pressure spring that supports it´s opening, to open it (with the roof tent on) is ok for me, but a bit tough for my wife alu rail on the cover to bolt bicycle carrier or roof tent on, ground clearance is slightly higher than that of my landy, so offroading with it is real fun towing it on the motorway is very nice, even at speeds of around 115km/h trailer weight 230kg, so 520kg left for beer total costs around € 2500,- What I would improve next time is: I would make it breakable, and I´ll implement a clever pull-out/sliding storing system, a 12V supply for the fridge and a water tank.
