Trailers and Towing
Ownership of a 4x4 is often tied in closely with the need to tow a trailer. Many an old landrover is kept just for towing the horse box to the local gymkhanas, whereas more and more peolpe have a lifestyle that includes caravans, boats, car racing or flying. In business a trailer is often the answer to having just one vehicle rather than a car and a van. In Dec 2004 I was asked to tow an aircraft trailer insured for £50,000 and this got me tninking about how little most of us know about trailer towing. So how can 4x4web help?

If you passed your car driving test after January 1997, you now need to pass a separate test (licence category B + E) for towing a trailer or caravan weighing over 750kg M.A.M. (Maximum Authorised Mass). Most horse boxes, cattle trailers and caravans already weigh this much unladen.
