Some of the local British car clubs also have trailers available for members.
Mine had a trailer-for TR3s and that sort of thing only. But we're getting a
new one that'll fit more that a TR3! (I think it's because our longtime
president has an 1800 Roadster and a TR7 spider...)
So, check with your local club-of which we're all members?
