Choose the 35MD if...
A plant trailer sized for a mini digger or small excavator, with a gas-assisted full-width ramp door for driving machines straight on and off. It is aimed at groundworkers and plant hire companies rather than general haulage.

Bought where machinery is too wide for the 1.57m GX105HD bed but the shorter 3.03m length is still enough, typically for wider skid-steers and small rollers.
Manufacturer also sells a skids-only version at slightly lower unladen weight; figures shown are for the ramp version.
