[SOLD] Erde 193 Trailer - upgraded and improved
Total cost to buy new and then complete over last 14 months around £1,800.00 (with receipts to prove!) and many man hours! In superb condition. Stored indoors in a dry and heated warehouse when not in use. Had to buy the next size up and start all over again! Arghhh!!
The dragon stickers are easily removed if you don’t like them, but I hope that you do!
List of upgrades over standard:
1. Erde side extension (doubling the capacity of the trailer).
2. Custom fitted and yacht varnished plywood top.
3. Custom made, full depth, PVC cover. Made as a one off, by Mark at Kustom Covers, from 610g PVC (not the rubbish polyester that Erde use), with much greater waterproofing and service life, with stainless steel and brass fittings. Rear flap to allow tailgate to be opened without removing the cover.

4. Unnecessarily very heavy duty rear stands (because I really liked the engineering ).
5. High quality jockey wheel with pneumatic tyre.
6. Twin spares.
7. Stainless steel nose tool box.
8. Heavy duty carpet installed from new.
All ready to go in good time for the summer holiday
Located in SE Cornwall, but will meet up as the extreme north east (that’ll be Taunton!) if that helps
Will take a thumping great loss of £1,000.00, at £795.00

I've been asked about the manufacturer's specifications for the trailer:
This photo shows how the trailer arrives before any money is spent on it and the important dimensions:

The unladen weight of the trailer is 160kg
It is an unbraked trailer, so the maximum legal weight is 750kg, including the weight of the trailer.
