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

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 anywayDuncan

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 Duncan
