From what I read they are good, if we upgrade, that's what we are looking at I think.

Thanks :-) might save me £50 on the downplating then

The star treka weighs 1900 unladen though! So quite a different beast. Our car needs to also do regular runs into London for my OH kids to be collected and taken back and do our 'about town' stuff. If I don't need to downplate that's fine, but my friend was told by VOSA your trailer plate must...

I have to say that the X trail pulls well currently so I'm going to see how it goes but wondered what I should be looking at. Ours is the one with the increased BHP so is quite gutsy!

Meant to ask also, assume weight should still be on right, so for backwards facing right side loading with one horse, one should load alongside partition beside ramp? (If that makes sense..!!)

Yeah I'm old enough..! Thanks, will do re cars. I'm hoping the xtrail will be fine, it doesn't straight at all with my current one but there is about 400kg difference...

Hi, was recommended on BD to come here and ask things...and they advised that ROG was a bit of a guru... I currently tow a richardson rosette trailer with one 16.1 wb in, using my 2.2dci xtrail (that I share with my OH) which is allowed to pull 2t. However I need to have some living as I've...

Anyway I only came on to answer questions, that's done. Judge as you like,as I said.

The outdoor arena was unusable, sand, clay, waterlogged, so we cantered in a field and our warmup fence was fence 1 of the pairs....

Except nobody on course.

OP was not rider, I was. Story is as was previously said, as lifted from bd Facebook page. Had competed in pairs, no numbers given. No info as to class running late, gate to start box open.went in about 15 mins before time to see if anyone about, asked to go to warmup area, left, was not told...

if you have old ele 41 it is same test.

Yes on unilateral forelimb PSD. yes it worked, did return to competition. would agree that forelimbs better than hindlimbs for return to function. am small anmal vet but have fabulous horse vet and of course read up loads and questioned him loads about it. one thing that was interesting was -...

skye 123 -can't pm you so here's my reply hi, it is THE MOST fun you can have, especially if you make friends etc, nerve wracking but cool. XC up to height, SJ more kind (but to be fair still a lot of poles fall!) I went in 2005 with a stuffy grey thing and it was so cool, never got to take him...
