I need a new road trailer for my Swift 18.
Can anyone tell me the type to look for, new or second hand. Also an idea of cost.
Many thanks
Gordon

Just ordered a Riba trailer for a Micro, 750 kg max weight, 180 kg dry weight, unbraked, price 2215 EUR / approx 1500 GBP... But this trailer is probably just too small for a Swift. Bad luck.

Did you check out the one in the 'For Sale' section?

Thanks Terry
the trailer you mention is not suitable.
I should also mention that I do have a trailer but its unbraked and I'm not sure about the legal requirments for towing with it.
Regards
Gordon

Greetings all,
I have just bought a Swift18 on a good braked trailer - an Aqua trailer from Talywain Gwent though i can't find them on a website. It has a Bradley HU3H key lockable coupling. I have noticed that many pictures of Swifts show an Aqua trailer though a downside of mine is that it has the 'agricultural' 5 stud bolted hubs and 6"x9" tyres which are £70 each! Here is a picture. It carries the weight fine and is easy to load onto. I believe modern breakback trailers are favouredd these days.

Your trailer is exactly like mine and mine is a SBS trailer
(Wolverhampton). Yours could be a modified version because I don't
believe the original trailers had 5 studs!!
