What's the reasoning for no 5th on the door / a carrier?

Personally I prefer the look having the spare on the door

For 1 thing I can't get my Bike Rack on the Back if the Spares on the door.
I think it's safer outa the way too.
I also think it looks better with nothing on the rear door.

for some reason my father then decided to powder coat it orange... hopefully will compliment the new bike when it arrives sometime in feb being a sort of lime green color

Well I tried the Trailer on it Today for the 1st Time Smile

To say that I've NEVER towed anything before I think that I did rather well Very Happy
Managed to get it out of the Garage ok & off the drive. Drove it for a few miles with no probs, didn't hit any kerbs or anything either lol
Then I managed to reverse it back onto our drive in 1 go & into the Garage without touching anything Shocked

All in it was a positive experience Cool
Just need to keep practicing with it now.

@ Xelr8 Congratulations on your new venture! Very smart looking set up you've got - your 110 is a corker! Are you old enough to have grandfather rights in relation to your B+E entitlement? Or did you have to take the trailer test? I keep thinking about doing mine, but not got round to it. I'm also guessing you've head to get your head round tachograph regs, which from what I've heard from others on here isn't the simplest thing in the world! Out of interest what did you do before you started up with this new transport venture? 2005 Td5 | 90 Station Wagon | Tonga Green
