Buy or hire the Alicante if...
A low-cost, lightweight trailer for campers and DIY users who want an occasional-use box trailer that any car can tow. At 136kg unladen it is light enough to move by hand around a drive, and the lift-off lid means it can be loaded from any side rather than over a tailgate.
