[For Sale] Brian James car trailer

Thinking about selling my enormous Brian James car trailer to free up some space, since there's no where to put it at my new house

It's a older model but still in fantastic condition and cost me a fortune not that long ago as it's hard to get them this big second hand.

I'll get full specs later but the basics are:

- Fully galvanised chassis
- Twin axle
- Independant suspension
- Cable-operated drum brakes all round
- Cable hand brake
- Heavy duty hitch
- 6.5ft wide bed
- Load bed lined with Marine Ply
- Long reach loading ramps
- Rear loading support legs
- 4 x recent heavy duty tyres
- 1 x unused spare
- Nearly new Bulldog hitch lock included

Bad points:

- The original jockey wheel was missing when I bought it so it currently has a caravan version bolted onto the side of the A frame that could really do with replacing
- The wheels are corroded and could do with a refurb
- The brakes are ok but could do with new brake lines if it was going to be towing heavy weight regularly
- The drivers side rear marker light fitting is corroded internally
- The Marine Ply has a few battle scars
- The factory fitted hitch lock doesn't work, so I'll include an extremely expensive Bulldog hitch clamp that I had to order specially to fit this trailer

I really don't want to sell it but needs must. It's been a fantastic trailer while I've had it and with a little bit of updating it will give many years of service yet!

Looking for offers around £2.5k for it

Currently located near Falkirk but I can deliver at a reasonable price

That looks to be a very handy trailer! Can you tell me what are the tare and gross weights, and the bed length?

I don't have them to hand but I'll get them for you next time I'm near where it's currently being stored.

It took me months to find a decent trailer this big, as far as I know it's the widest and longest trailer they do
