I am hoping to get mine on the weigh bridge at work the next time I go away. My van is also rated at 1700kg. I have taken my heavy tool boxes out the disco for better mpg (but will be going back in if the goverment drop the tax on veg oil!!! )

How heavy does a disco weigh roughly?

Before anyone askes then, yes I have done the dvla trailer test to allow me to tow it :lol: :wink:

Heres mine.



Start the guessing now! :lol: There is no ful size awning in my caravan due to extra weight and never put it up. I do have a motor mover on the van though  :wink: [/url]

Longer the trailer, easier it is to reverse. The main thing that lets us landy tow'ers down when reversing is the steering lock :lol:
