turning circle
Hi Guys, I am going to check my lock stops as the turning circle is horrendous and am having to shunt even in a car park or is this normal? Trying to reverse a trailer in a tight space is almost impossible should I have got another L200?

95% of the time L200 might well have been a better choice.....
however its that last 5% that counts for alot ! Very Happy

I'm sure you'll find that the stops are just as they should be .....try not to get the trailer into anything less than a football pitch size location and all should be just fine Wink

check the adjustment, you may get another 20 mils each side, but even then the turning circle is not great. spacers improve it no end (you need to then adjust the stops again)

I'll second that. I've got 25mm spacers on my 110 and, even with 265 tyres, the turning circle is much better than my wifes' DII. Darren
