Where is the motor?
Kev

'91 stretch Discovery 200 Tdi
Hybrid for running round (got to go now)
Srs 3 Lightweight petrol (got to go)
Srs 3 Lightweight petrol, runabout

Not every problem can be solved with duct tape, and it's exactly for those situations we have WD 40

As far as I can remember it is in Swindon (that's the sister and brother-in-law by the way :wink: )

I have used Swillington trailer centre.  01132 871463  Last hire cost me about £45 Friday afternoon to Monday mid day.
 They will probably ask what vehicle you intend loading on the trailer, and what you will tow with. 3500k gross trailer should handle a 110 no bother.

Use a Trailer A standard N/A 110 HT or pickup weighs about 1800kg empty. CSW weighs a bit more but not much. So a trailer with a gross weight of 2500kg will probably manage it (just make sure it's long enough).  I personally wouldn't use an Aframe as it is an offence to use one (except for an emergency recovery) and whilst the police may not bother you. If you are involved in an accident whilst using an Aframe you can guarantee your insurance won't cover you or payout for any claims. Also any vehicle that is been towed with an A frame has to be taxed & mot'd.

Got to agree, they're good up there & have 'done the business' for me a few times

Although, for you, Indespension in Leeds is closer (just off Hunslet Road, behind Robert Bowett SAAB/Suzuki)

Sorry, don't know of any comparable supplier in Bradford
Richard A Thackeray 
Defender 110Td5 'Heritage Gone, but not forgotten
Jaguar XKR; X88 JLT, also 'gone, but not forgotten'

Yorkshire Born & Bred, and proud of it.
