    If you tow two horses with an unbraked trailer the horse protection league will be after you!!!
    Also in case you all weren't aware you're only meant to be doing 50mph when towing a trailer behind a car anyway!!

    Errr. Wrong.

    Single carriageway, speed limit for trailers is 50mph.
    Dual carrageway and motorways, speed limit for trailers is 60mph.
    It;s the same as for HGVs.

    You need to read your highway code more often.

    My what!?!?

    In any case just because the limit is 60 doesn't mean you should be doing it (especially in a take a leak pot unbraked trailer with two horses in it!) ;)

    I'd be worried about doing 20mph with that trailer.

    Oooh I sat in one those in a showroom.
    V10 - 65k though.
    Not much room inside but looked very nice.

    Will definitely look good with cow poo and mud sprayed up the side
