I should say, reading it again, that the rules apply for New, complete vehicles from October last year.
Even existing designs need approval in time for October next year.

Bear in mind that if someone is making you a custom trailer (a new design) as of Saturday just been then it will need an IVA test at your local VOSA centre (or UK or European type approval) before it can go on the road.


Unbraked boat trailers up to 750kg are class O1.

If i remember rightly the main things:
-Lighting, there is more of it (needs 11 pin electrics).
-Rear under run bar

Ambrow trailers in Christchurch are pretty good. They don't mind building from a plan.

Can anyone recommend a trailer manufacture who will be interested enough to build a custom designed cat trailer. I have tried three different manufactures in Shropshire but unless it is a square box or to carry sheep they are not interest. When then find out is for a boat the price doubles.

 

I can travel within reason and have plans to work to I am just looking for someone who is prepared to take a project on.

 

Any help would be appreciated
