Joe(on here) from Baileboro with 2530 LI is going to build a Mini trailer also so he may have some ideas for you.

There are many designs of Mini trailer, some are made pointed at the front, some dead flat and others made from two rear ends.

The length of the tow bar only needs to be a little more than 50% of the width of the car I suppose.

was that the guy with the red mini and red trailer??
if so, i was talking to him for a bit, he had only finished his mini the day beforehand and took a good few years to rebuild...
anyway he also told me that he bought the trailer like that and that it was a complete fibreglass one...
im not sure if he's on the forum although i did mention to him to join 8)
