Re: Car Trailer/Transport
Make sure you have the correct License category to tow a trailer.
Not sure of your age or when you past your test.

Re: Car Trailer/Transport

I just need to check weights as the self drive option will take a load up to 1.5t which i'm guessing a Dolomite 1850 auto will be under (i will check the specs online)
Re: Car Trailer/Transport
Dolomite is well under 1500kgs.
Varies between 971 to 1281 depending where you look.
