Trailers suitable for model 3

[LongRanger]

Been looking into how to spec/find a trailer that meets many needs - for example a mixture of general carting junk to the tip, transporting sheep, transporting ATV / sit-on mower and whatever else life brings along.

Moving aggregates etc is not an issue as already have off-road options.

The limits of the model 3 are 910kg. I’m setting a target of the trailer to weigh no more than 400kg.

Normally I would go straight for an option from CLH trailers as they are based/made in Wales and a very good company - or Ifor Williams - but can’t find what I’m looking for in a light enough weight.

So far I have found these options

Bateman general purpose with ramp - I would spec to have high mesh sides etc
This looks like a good design but not ideal for sheep and doesn’t appear to have a roof option.

Chapman QT200 (safe for sheep with roof option, but limited on size choice)
I rate Chapman very highly as have one of their tow-behind flail mowers, superbly made bit of kit.

Who knows their trailers and can recommend something light, strong, well-made and around the ratings of the Model 3 LR towing spec ?

I'm pretty certain they all do that...

Forgot to include : needs to be 13-pin Euro spec compatible which both options above are.

Look at the indespension tow a van.

I have the 4 x 6 box trailer.
Not used it yet with the 3 but when I take delivery Tuesday I expect to be using it pretty frequently!

Picked it up on eBay a year ago. Used quite a few times with my SUV. Very light! Great trailer

Indespension range looks quite comprehensive, thanks. Weights creeping up above the ideal level for my needs - ideally the Model 3 would be rated around the 1200kg level but obviously there has to be a limit.

Update on Chapman option - they now list 2 versions of what was the QT200 - RT200 and RT220

Get a 13-pin adapter off AmaFleaBay for a fiver. I swap my trailers regularly between my MX and older 7-pin equipped vehicles. No issues.

Shame this doesn’t have more of a general purpose design but this looks like a good option for transporting small machinery and stable flatter loads.

And one more for today, Relo general purpose from Motiv Trailers, liking the plastic mudguards design on this one

After looking at a couple of options have discovered Chapman have stopped making their QT/RT200 road trailer. Damn.

So have sent a quote request to Motiv for their Relo 85.

Update - unfortunately for Motiv with a wait time of up to 20 weeks and no discounting even with £1500 of optional configuration on top of their base product they are not going to get a sale.

The search begins again.
