Ahh DK, I think thats what ours will look like - only a little bit bigger.
It looks like it has good capacity.
Without the extension sides and doubling the original trailer capacity by 1005, I would have to continue to use a roof box in order to take everything with me.
Hence I am glad I opted for the extension sides.
The car will take the folding bike, brew kit, dog kit, my kit, a couple of crates of food and drink, plus a cool box.
Both the car and the trailer have room for more gear, however, I am NOT buying anymore, except for replacement purposes! Honest!

I bought a 10ff x 4ft x 4ft box trailer from eBay, initially for the kids quads but we use it for camping now, it has 13" wheels, I've had to fit rear lights, mud guards a jockey wheel and wire it up myself, I've also sealed it all inside and repainted outside and we have used it a couple of times for camping this year, it's brilliant, we can take everything from all the bikes, the gas BBQ, all of our camping gear and suitcases and still have space, we are taking it to France in August, as it measures under the 1.95m height it comes under the cheaper toll tariffs for french roads, I did take it to a public weigh bridge and had its tare weight and loaded weight taken, it was over 100kg less then the 800kg un braked towing limit of our car!

box part comes off and chasis can be used as a flat bed trailer, the chasis can be rolled into the box part and locked then turn the whole thing on it's side and you can wheel the 5x4 trailer through a standard width garden gate, brilliant for those with storage issues
