Thing is I bet it’s a nightmare to reverse as it’s so short, just sayin’…

Little trailers are horrible as you can’t see them when they start turning. By the time you do, it’s already going the wrong way.

He’d have done better to leave the back doors open!

Without wanting to upset all the PC brigade, aren’t most of these parts vans driven by (usually very fit) women?

I endorse that, I used to tow a small twin axle box trailer behind my VW LWB Transporter van
In the end it was easier to unhitch the bloody thing and push it into position manually

Most unfair to take the P. That really is a good effort.

I can’t see my single bike trailer when reversing & I take a lot longer to reverse than that.

knowing the ECP drivers as i do, i’m surprised he got it in there at all :open_mouth: :open_mouth: :open_mouth: :open_mouth: :open_mouth:

And?

I’d much rather reverse one of our 55’ super trailers than one of them! I’ve a short trailer that I use with the car for trips to the tip…it’s a pig to reverse.

His must be even worse, cause by the time he can see the thing in his mirrors, it’ll already be passed the point of no return!!!

I’d of just unhitched and pushed the bloody thing :wink:

Bloody hell would off been quicker to un hitch and push it in. To be fair though I can back a low loader in most places easy enough but then If I’m working with the father in law and he asks me to back his sprinter and trailer over you should see me I end up in a right ■■■■■■■ state and end up looking a right ■■■■ just like…oh ■■■■ just like the euro van dogh!.

I would love to see that trailer go over the speed humps around here, they collect sump oil :laughing: :laughing:

And?

Erm… And it was a little light hearted fun (do you remember that)

Most things played on fast forward with Benny Hill music are good for a giggle (remember that too)

Don’t take life too serious, It makes you sad, bitter and twisted :grimacing:

Really? Fun? If he’d have crashed in a really stupid way or proper cocked up it would have been interesting. All you’ve done is filmed a bloke trying to reverse a trailer that is shorter than the towing vehicle. It was ■■■■.

That time of the month?

No I’m just sad, bitter and twisted :wink:

Pedestrian tarmac roller trailer behind our 4 wheelers is a complete sod to reverse, I’d say drive did well in that video!

And yes I agree the drivers are more often than not fit females!! :smiling_imp:

Fit women?!

I’m my area Euro/Pentland etc are just failed mechanics with the sour attitude to match!
Same goes for tyre and exhaust fitters!

Although I hear Dingbro are pretty well paid…
