Gridgway Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 I need to get a slightly bigger trailer than my minno. The 7 is fine on it, but my new radical clubsport fits, but is not comfortable. So I need about a 13" bed and slightly wider than the 65" of the minno. Thanks Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gridgway Posted March 28, 2005 Author Share Posted March 28, 2005 thanks, Rob, all the interesting trailers there are pretty old ads. have tried emailing a few, but with no response. Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookiemonster Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 Hello I've one of Mr James' Club 1200s that i've been considering trading for something smaller, as I dont really need the larger bed for my 205, so i may be interested in a swap. Its three years old and in fine fettle. If you're interested in a 1200, let me know. From the BJ website it has a width of 6'1" so a bit more to play with than the minno. Meanwhile i'll check whether the 205 will fit on a 65" body. I'm pretty sure the weight will be fine (the cars 750kg, plus a a set of wheels and a couple of jerry cans - cant be more than 850?) I'm in Surrey btw (just in case you're in the Shetlands or something... :) ) Let me know what you think jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KayCee Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 If you end up deciding to sell the Minno can you e-mail me and let me know as I'm very interested in getting one in the very near future! Ta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Faulds Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 jon, a 205 will fit on a Minno - just! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver-7 Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 Have used a BJ mino also to transport our "team tomato" 205 1.9 gti without any trouble, as stuart says its tight but sits ok on the trailer. cheers Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookiemonster Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 hello forgot to measure up last night so i'm not sure, but my 205 has the 309 wishbones which widen the front track by maybe an inch and a half, and 15x7" (rather than 6") rims so i really need to check...

Tim Sture Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 Graham I've got a larger trailer that I have used for 5 years - larger than I need for the 7, would quite like to have a minno or similar instead, so I can fit in teh garage rather than storing it at the in-laws' place. I've never measured it but I'd say it's more than "slightly" larger, but not gargantuan! If you're interested, I can measure up for you at the weekend Tim (tim.sture@begbies-traynor.com) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gridgway Posted March 31, 2005 Author Share Posted March 31, 2005 Cookiemonster and Tim, thanks for the replies. If you can both measure up that would be great (am interested in both, well either IYSWIM). Thanks Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Powell Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Would you be intrested in buying a nearly new large hydraulic tilt bed trailer as i have one that is surpluss to requirements it is 5metres long and 2 metres wide, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gridgway Posted April 1, 2005 Author Share Posted April 1, 2005 Hi Colin, I think the tilt bed will be too big if the bed is 5mx2m. Also with a very low car like the Radical, I think it would have trouble with a tilt bed as it needs long ramps. Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Powell Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 O.K. Graham Best of luck with your search *cool* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgrigsby Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 Graham I have a slightly older Club 750 that is definetly wider than a Minno, it's wide enough for an SV so should be Ok for you but I'm not sure on the length. I can check and see if it's Ok next week sometime hopefully. Rob G www.SpeedySeven.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
