The Maxi 3 is aimed at owners who regularly need to move three horses at once, using diagonal herringbone stalls and a full-size tack room rather than a simple extension of a two-horse layout. At 3500kg GVW it needs a suitably rated tow vehicle and, for newer licence holders, category B+E entitlement.

Buy or hire the 153 if...
- you want one that is 1,271kg lighter empty
A mid-sized step up from the 122 for buyers wanting more load capacity for camping equipment or garden waste. The 144cm bed and 40cm sides make it a garden-waste and camping trailer rather than a builders one, and at 124kg unladen one person can manoeuvre it.
