This is £379 in argos, and it has free delivery.

seems quite reasonablely priced. Yeomans are also selling them, not this cheap with about £20 delivery, look quite well built.

Halfords do them!

Keep a look out for the odd special deal they do with them & make a grab!

Mines an Erde 122 which has been brilliant, althought I would go slightly bigger if I had the funds!

I think this on is slightly larger than a 122. it is longer than a caddy 535 and about 3cms narrower

As previous poster said..keep an eye on Halfords I bought mine 2 yrs ago,it was a special event weekend and I got the Erde 122 with £100 discount,would also agree that next size up would be better..

Received my Camel Trailer from Discover Today :)
I went for the large one with cover for £215 free delivery.
It took me 2 hours to build it, quite straight forward and comes with all the tools to put it together.
I had a quick drive round the block with it empty, seemed a bit bouncy but should be fine once its loaded up.
Anyone know a recommended tyre pressure?
It states 60psi max, I set them to 30psi hopefully this will be pretty close.

Hi,  Sorry to jump in on this but we're just looking at trailers to buy and have seen one at Motorworld for £149 - it's exactly the same as the Halfords small one at £169.  I think this may be  stupid question but do the trailers come with electrics?  I thought we'd just have the towbar fitted and then just plug it in?  Is that not right?  Oh dear, I'm going to get as stressed with this as I did when looking at tents!
