Sounds good, I won't be back in Blighty 'til July, I'm gonna do a bit of a road trip then.

Thanks,
Shane

This was my personal best...

A 1200kg 10m long glider box, I didn't try it on the road though.

I think my little trailer is roughly seven feet by five feet including the drawbar and wheels, and that tows very nicely behind the 2cv.

Apalling quality photo but probably one of my most amusing "tows".

Collected the car from a policeman who thought that as soon as it was on the trailer and in gear, it was safe to tow! :shock:

Quite a few bemused looking folks on the motorway too taking it back to Tamworth from Wolverhampton.

Hahahaha, it towed atreat did that "Dyane". Got even better when I re-shelled it with the blue one on the trailer and fitted a bigger fuel tank etc-90 miles on a tankfull when towing wasn't funny, especially on the way to Bicton for the International in 99. :lol:

(Just going slightly off-topic but, new owner of this car, when will we see some progress? ;) )

Going Slightly off Topic - 'What do you tow your 2cv with?'

It's a Winnibago Brave and its 33ft long

A little UP for this thread too.
James, This was the other thread about towing.

- I don't know what the fuss is all about, never had any problems when I used to tow this sometimes back in my student days -
