I have got one......it's a D3 Laughing

I want the fron towbar for when I go back to storage, I keep mine on a mates farm in a garage and it's a PITA. That said I can reverse it well and can manage, it's just an extra I have found useful in the past and more practical than a grands worth of motormover IMHO

I bought a mover - what a great bit of kit for showing off and it will get you places you cant get to with any tow bar.

Ohh and I can reverse like a pro - i have been to a few sites where I would have wanted to turn the caravan through 180 degrees and it would have been impossible wherever you have a towbar.

Rogue go buy one I am well impressed even if you only use it a few time a year it is worth its weight, and also you can hitch up in seconds no arguments with the better half.

Anyway ill get my coat

Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter @ Rogue, but buy a mover they are great. I have a Reich and yes I can reverse but it is great for awkward pitches.

I have a mover on our twin axle, never used it ...., other than to move the caravan a few cm's to attach the alko locks.

I find it a pain in the bum as its too slow.. Evil or Very Mad

My reich moves around walking pace, not sure how fast you want a mover to go? What make is it? Is your battery up to full power? So many questions so few answers!!

its working ok, goes about walking pace.... but I'm impatient, and with a twin axle, to turn it 180 degress needs the width of an airfield.
