Thanks very much. But the one I have my eye on is just under 9ft long bed. But the axle looks like its placed further back . And not centre of the bed.
I have contacted the seller. And just heard back, He said he has had a smart and a (new) fiat 500 on it. All he said was it was fine.
Just after a second opinion.

Well that's good then
Thanks very much. It's great to have someone who has used this type of trailer with a car other than a smart. Trying to find any info anywhere is hopeless
So I greatfull for you answers.
But the only problem is . now my wallet is going to be a bit lighter
Cheers.
