I am aiming for a max of 750kg which shouldn't bother the Jimny... but we don't have a weigh bridge on Jersey. .. With the exception of the bridge at the dump but I don't know how I could make an excuse to use that one lol

Looks a decent enough base, I love it when a plan comes together.

Looks good especially as it has those stabilising legs :)

I like the below one... The swinging roof is a nice touch but I want to use this as a utility trailer as well mainly for fire wood and moving big stuff like furniture etc

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationJust found an overland trailer on the Bay of E maybe some more ideas for you look at. At the price he is asking for it, might be worth thinking about the cost of building yours against this one :unsure:

Hmm I would but the cost of me coming over and picking it up would be out of the question also I am looking forward to having a long term build project where I can take time to think things through and get it exactly the way I want it...

Besides it looks like he has made the whole thing from 2 inch box which would weigh a ton!!
