good point rustic, bit like rowing boat i saw.
think as you say its down to load on trailer rather than an integrated unit. suspect an oversized trailer can be towed if it is identifed as a special,or like a breakdown service. perhaps tug would need to be set up with warning beacon etc ideally if is registered as breakdown truck. we have a member that works for a trailer repair service, and decribed towing over size items with a patrol. would look diffeerent to a family off on their hols... but for normal towing law stands.

The trouble with a big hobby caravan is a lot of caravan sites will turn you away.
Although you may have a B+E licence, once you become over 70 years you are limited to 3500k unless you pass a medical which can cost £135. regards bri |

Does this clarify a couple of the licence/weight points?
