Pretty impressive - but I'd have the tintent backed up, legs down and the kettle on by the time he'd pressed all the buttons Wink

Shame we couldn't use a mobile phone and control the car from outside so you can gauge how far back to go

Still impressive tech though, but a caravan mover would be cheaper

so instead of turning the steering wheel you turn a smaller knurled knob? I might be missing something, but it doesn't seem that much easier?

You turn the small knob the way your looking, with the steering wheel you have to turn opposite direction Peter

I've had lads working for me who are excellent in fork lifts but put them in a side winder truck for first time it's funny they go any direction but forwards Peter

The dealer said its like a video game you actually use the knob to steer the trailer. You need to forget your in the tow car and just treat it like an xbox, it will works all the steering out to move the trailer as if its the tow car towing the disco. MY06 S - Gone but not forgotten
MY12 HSE - Gone
MY16 HSE Luxury - Sold
MY20 D5 HSE - Sold
