Is the 'trailer' a UK type - i.e. for luggage - or a USA type - i.e. for living
in?
I've found the stock engine perfectly reliable for legal+ cruising with full
load of 3 kids and wife, and sailing dinghy behind - on at least 1 occasion I
had a boat behind and one on the roofrack plus four teenagers inside and their
sailing and camping gear, and was pulled over by a police car for doing 70mph as
the trailer speed limit was supposed to be 50mph then - 60mph now I think.  He
didn't give me a ticket - probably felt sorry for me!
