Too big, in fact. It's big and it's black, full of tension and fear and it's taking up most of the driveway if not my whole life. No, it's not the Wing, it's the ex-Veggie Dave trailer which I recently acquired. I was promised that as soon as I got a trailer, every bugger would be borrowing it. This hasn't happened: everyone except Champ has let me down. The thing has been sitting outside my house like the Cart of Darkness, doing sod all except provoking domestic strife. So, it's got to go. Veggie gave it to me free gratis and for nothing, so it's available here for a limited time at cost price before I'm driven to sling it on ebay. If Veggie wants it back, he has first refusal. What's it like? Well, it's got a good, sound angle-iron frame, jockey wheel etc, and an enormous plywood box body (4'x4'x8') which is a bit frayed at the edges. And a drop-down tailgate which is solid enough to roll bikes up. The tyres are dodgy as ****, but they seem to hold air well enough. You'll need a towhook, a trailer board, and a country estate where it can be put out to grass. So, don't all rush at once... -- platypus "Merely corroborative detail, intended to give artistic verisimilitude to an otherwise bald and unconvincing narrative."

Daft bugger. That's enormous. Not like my sveldt molished ex- carmichael one. Four figures and came with free bike. P.

It is a bit large. Currently it's competing for space with the Wing, the Ural and the VFR, and soon, a boat. Which is why it's being returned to the wild. -- platypus "Merely corroborative detail, intended to give artistic verisimilitude to an otherwise bald and unconvincing narrative."
Just leave it where it is. Some pikey will hitch his flat-bed Transit up to it in a day or two and relieve you of it.
But where else would you find one that could both be towed by the Wing and be towed carrying the Wing. If you had 2 Wings think of the fun you could have.
In message When did you get a Transit? I didn't think there was enough free space at the chateau and I am sure the Doctor wouldn't like it.
Christ no. After pushing the one I have around this afternoon, I'm tempted to out the fucker. -- platypus "Merely corroborative detail, intended to give artistic verisimilitude to an otherwise bald and unconvincing narrative."
