I thought it was the perfect solution. I think I need to mount one on the roof and test it down the M5.

uneventful journey = OK - buy roof tent Thumbs Up

Crash = not a good idea - turn trailer into mobile bed Thumbs Up

so, im thinking of trading the single axle in for a braked twin axle - that should make it a bit more stable and I can build a reinforced frame inside to take the weight. given the trailer is lower in height and has a lower centre of gravity than a sankey im hoping it should be ok. it tows better than a sankey anyway

depends on the trade in price. taking it in on Friday. I think the TA will also be more stable as the trailer wont tip backwards when the roof tent is on.

I also want to use the trailer interior as a living space. im thinking Aquarium, 52 inch TV and a Jacuzzi Thumbs Up
