^ It did very well,
One day 540 miles in one day.... Bike rack with the boom bar was great. With the thule rack I can drop it down if I want the back door fully open however even up you can open the back enough to get at stuff. ![]() Click image to enlarge Its a nice trailer that.... I almost went that route but too pricey. I'm still doing mine up ![]() ![]() Click image to enlarge |

Royal Navy Northern Dive Group on duty in Durness (clearing unexploded ordnance from Cape Wrath Range) - they nearly tipped the 110 over with their (substantial) weight!

Cheers Greeni! Got it sitting more level after fixing the rear airbag sag problem that was plaguing me in that picture. And hopefully this winter will get welding done in a few places and then a respray. But the project roof has worked really well.
Current job is sorting out the clip-in side panels to convert it from fabric side to insulated hard side when I want to. Was away in it a few weeks back and caught in a gale and it was very noisy and wobbly with that 'sail' up. What I've realised is that I can actually lower the roof angle on the gas struts quite a bit and still have standing room and space up top for sleeping. This will reduce windage, but crucially it will make the clip-in panels much narrower and easier to store. For winter use too its a smaller space to heat. Its an evolutionary process! |

I've had one of those behind, it was a bit close on the weight limit though, well it was over by the time you add the buckets and all the crap on the tracks

This was in our old 90. Hence the 110 now we have 2 dogs. Sadly, this old boy is no longer with us.

Just be careful when launching; ![]() Click image to enlarge Defender drove out from even that far in and took me a further hundred and odd miles that day. Seat was a bit soggy though!

Loch Lomond's best fresh water fortunately.
If you look closely you can even see a life jacket has auto inflated in the back!! |
