A few weeks back I sold the GT with the intention of buying something sensible and economical for the road and hopefully have another GT for the track. So with the money I got from selling the GT, I managed to snap up a late 01 Mk4 Golf Tdi, brinks tow bar, car transporter and another lower spec GT. :rockon::rockon:
As I was bringing the transporter home when I first bought it, I got stoppped by the police. With me being only 21, he gave me an advice on towing with a B Licence and made me aware that I could only tow up the weight of the towing car... plus a few other points, but this one was my main legal concern that I would possibly not be meeting. He told me "I used to have a trailer like that myself and it weighs between 650 - 700 kgs, and I used to have a Golf aswell which would weigh in around 1100kg, so that would leave you around 400kg left for the car you will have on the trailer, any heavier and you have no licence"
bascially he ranted on for about half an hour...
well... took the golf and transporter to a weigh bridge last night...
1340kg for the golf
370kg for the transporter
leaving me 970kg for the GT :rockon::rockon:
UP YOURS COPPER!! lol
