Buy or hire the C Transporter if...
Brian James's entry-level open car transporter, a single-axle trailer that a family car can tow. Its 1,010kg load capacity suits a small classic car, track-day hatchback or ride-on mower rather than a modern SUV or performance car.

Buy or hire the Oblic+2 if...
A two-horse trailer that loads horses at a diagonal rather than straight ahead, giving nervous travellers more room to brace. It is hired by owners moving horses that struggle in conventional straight-loading boxes; UK ads sometimes list it under Cheval Liberte, the dealer that distributes it, rather than its actual French maker Fautras.
