ferretfixer Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 (edited) Hello Erstwhile Fellow Forum Members! I have purchased a small trailer, that is located in Beaumont, Between Colchester & Harwich CO16 0AT. The enourmous problem I have is, I cannot collect it! I do not at present have a vehicle on the road. That has a standard Civy Ball Hitch. My Military Vehicle is off the road, awaiting a new clutch & cannot move! Soooooo, my question is: Can anybody help me out & collect on my behalf at all please? I am located VERY close to the M20 Motorway in Ashford, Kent. Timeframe is not an issue. Ant the trailer is in good condition & appearance. The only thing you would need to pick this trailer up. (Apart from a suitably fitted tow hitch!) :-D Is a trailer light board. I am obviously willing to pay any expenses incurred. :thumbsup: or indeed, help out with a return favour if needed. So can anybody assist Me on this difficulty at all? Thank you one & all, in advance! :iloveyou: Mike. Edited November 11, 2016 by ferretfixer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowtracdave Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 If you'd like to pm me some details I can probably help out . I'm just the other side of Colchester so it's not far from me . In fact I'm going to be working even closer to that area very soon . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferretfixer Posted November 12, 2016 Author Share Posted November 12, 2016 Mike What empty weight is the trailer ? Regards Iain HI Iain, Do you know, I have no idea? :-D However, it is VERY light & quite a short wheelbase. Think Smart Car trailer size. The Photo of it should give you an idea? Does that Help at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

g0ozs Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 Mike Dave is 30 miles closer - size wise i think i could tow it with the car ok but I would need to get a civilian trailer board first - I only have one for the Landrover which only has a NATO hitch, so I will be happy for him to have first refusal on the job Regards Iain Will do, Ill take this to PM with you Dave.

DFC1943Fl.Lt. Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Does everyone think that W&P will still go ahead next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Farrant Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Does everyone think that W&P will still go ahead next year. I do not see why there should be any doubts for next year, the new town will not spring up in 8 months. Still a way to go before that happens, a lot of local unrest in the villages over the proposed development. Why not contact the organiser? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Richard, I was referring to the fact that didn't the organiser from last year end up with a prison sentence with regards to Tax Fraud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are confusing War & Peace Revival at Folkestone Race course, with an event organised by Dave King at the Hop Farm, Beltring. There is no connection between this man and W&PR.
