Cute little trailer was created by ZookFastback
Just had a message asking about my "Cute little Trailer", lol. It is not cute, it is efficient and smart and rugged and does the job. 
It is an "Aunger" branded tipping Trailer, same as the "Thule" one sold in the UK.
Weighs 80 kgs, loaded weight Max 310 kgs
Galvanised and Warranted for LIFE against CORROSION.
Pivots over the axle for emptying, 2 separate pins for safety against accidental tipping.
Drop-axles for greater clearance, torsion-bar suspension so doesn't bounce around and doesn't require shock-absorbers to stop bounce.
Tailgate drops down and also slides out and off. Two lockable latches to give security to load. Towball receptor is Lockable so it can be locked to towing vehicle "in use" or locked so that it cannot be connected to another vehicle.
Canvas cover.
My trailer is about 10 years old now, still looks as good as new. Has probably done about 80,000 k's. Tyres have been replaced a couple of times and I have often thought of putting 14" tyres on instead of the 10" ones but really, it goes where I go and spends most of its' time on long trips carrying 4 x 20 litre squat fuel cans and 2 x 20 litre water cans and my little pop-up tent and camping gear. This leaves the Jimny virtually empty.

I like. Makes me wonder what the import costs would be.

They sell them in the UK and USA and Oz mate. In Oz, as "Aunger" brand and in the UK as "Thule" and some other brand I can't remember.

As a recreational activities trailer that looks good, as with everything though it's what you use it for that dictates how useful it is. I do like a good Jimny combo makes them look proper.

Thanks. Retired in the Philippines. Surprisingly you don't see many small trailers here. Still a tempting one to look into.
