Nice - I want one! So what will you buy to fill it? And does the roofbox still go on the top like your second picture?

 No the roof box fitting was home made for that trailer and  this trailer is big enough without the need for a box.

Outstanding, that's just how a camping trailer should be, and probably the most perfect size. Just a pity the trailer builders don't make them that way, as there is definatley a niche in the market for camping specific trailers, where volume is more important than payload.

My only addition's, would be 13" Tyres instead of 10", and lockable HardTop.

 I agree about the hard top but maybe I can add that at a later date when finances allow    I'm happy with ten inch wheels though I don't fly along at 81 mph like you Francais  LOL

Yep moppetsdad once we hit French soil, it's warp factor 6, untill we get to our campsite 600 miles later! with a couple of overnight stops at budget hotels along the way of course.

Scary thing is, even towing at 81mph, I still get the Germans passing me towing thier caravans.

I've nearly finished building a Lid/Hat for my 5X3 trailer. The sides are extended by 12" (300mm) will post pics when complete.
