    Stolen: Bike trailer, Glenfield

    Reg: G157N

    Custom built bike specific trailer. The trailer is a one off and has some fairly distinguishable features.

    Galvanised Finish
    3 Berth - Really wide (wider than the Pajero that was also stolen)
    Jockey Wheel / 3rd Wheel, also has a spare wheel that bolts to the underside of the trailer.
    Has a mesh floor (similar to the wide square mesh used for concrete reinforcing).
    15" Wheels (black) - has round mudgards that are very close to the tire ~ 1-2 inch.
    Flush mounted led tail lights in the rear bar. Centre mounted number plate in the rear bar also.
    Extra wide channels for the bikes (probably 20 cm or maybe more). The ramp is also made of the same channel and is strapped to the floor. One of the tie points along the front of the trailer has snapped off partially.

    Stolen from Glenfield , and the Pajero was found the next day also in Glenfield (well trashed), so a good chance it's someone local.The Pajero was parked down our driveway with the trailer attached while we were at home. We were moving house so had some personal items in the car at the time, as well as the kids car seats and about 8 pairs of Aerofast Tie Downs (Marked with "Dunlop" in vivid on the metal parts).

    Will see if I can find a picture, hopefully it appears somewhere (it cant really be used for anything apart from bikes). I just want it back, any info would be great.

    Cheers

    Stolen Trailer - Glenfield

    I realise some of the offroad guys don't check out the rest of the forum, so I've linked to my thread about a stolen bike trailer. I know it's probably long gone, but you never know it might be seen at a trailride or woodhill etc.

    Found! Picked it up today. Even still had the rubbish on it (all the tie downs are gone though).

    Unfortunately no, it was found on the side of the road in Papatoetoe. My guess is they either had no use of it, or my awesome description here in KB scared them away (tui).

    Luckily the insurance covered all the towage / salvage fees apart from the excess, and contents insurance should cover the tie downs (and other stuff from the car).
