Buy or hire the 143 if...
The Erde 143 is a step up in size from the Erde 102, still light enough for many family cars to tow without a braking system, and commonly used for camping, tip runs and light gardening or DIY loads. Its tipping body and low unladen weight make it a popular first trailer for private buyers.
