Recently I posted a thread regarding tow or trailer which was the best as my wife is disabled and we need some form of transport.
After a lot of good replies I decided to use a trailer, however it was then pointed out that my hymer b694 has a GVW of 4k and a GTW of 4.8k allowing only 800k to tow.:Sad::Sad:
The boss was not to happy with this saying I should have done my homework before buying.:Blush::Blush:
One evening I put a search in for the lightest cars and came up with some weird results of obscure cars built in the 30's, 40's, 50's 60's,70's and 80's.
Modern cars with all the bits they have now exceed the limit.
The old version of the Fiat 500 comes in at only 500k, but the one that caught my eye was the old classic Citroen 2cv.
Over the last few years they have had a resurgence and there are lots of them around some crap but a lot of good renovated one's.
They also come in at 500k and I know a place that builds a special trailer just for the 2cv, total weight of car and trailer is 720k, which is within my limits.
So I have now bought a 2cv and will be picking it up this week once i have been and picked up the trailer.
So there will soon be a big German pulling a little French maid along, shades of 'ello 'ello.
