Ecotrailer

[Tompy]

Does anybody have some experience with ecotrailer?
The new iq model looks great. And important the total hight is 240 cm as higher is a bit of a problem for me

Thx

I have a Eco Velocity IQ which is nearly 3 years old. Tows really well. The chassis is excellent but the fiberglass pod is imo a little flimsy. The two full wing doors make loading simple. It is a manual tilt system rather than hydraulic, but again imo its far better as there is little to go wrong.
The option for the two small front side hatches is of little benefit as the are too small to be of any really use, and quite difficult open and I don't use them.

I would recommend getting some motor movers or similar as it makes moving the trailer easy.

It's not up to a Brian James standard but it is 2/3 of the price.

If you use it as I do for track days 15 times a year or so, its perfect. If you are going to travel thousands of miles, spend the extra and get a Brian James.

They all hold their resale value extremely well.

Hope that helps.

I have just received, 2 months ago, a new Velocity RS with some IQ updates ( IQ is new model , will be in production now).
The chassis and basic equipments are top level, the fiberglass and interior quality are good.
Really a very good product for the price.
If you want some pics of special parts , or the spec of my order, send me a message with your mail address.

I would echo the comments re the build quality of PRG trailers.

Richard Proudlove designed and built me a totally bespoke hydraulic tilt Beavertail trailer (LxW) ultra low load angle with a deliberately short drawbar that fits into a standard international shipping container with my Atom strapped on to it!

The build quality is superb and it tows beautifully and as it has dual axles I can load my Atom facing forwards with no hint of fishtailing while towing.

Your trailer is nice [mention]autobackup[/mention]. I thought about getting something like this, then asking a fabricator to custom manufacture a fibreglass shell around it. There are kits available to do this. It is quite shocking on how much enclosed trailers cost, I suspect it's a lot cheaper to buy a "flatbed" style one then custom fit a shell to it. Anyone else considered this or looked into it?
