I have seen a dealer at the factory put a 3 wheeler in the back of a sprinter van with the front wheels off

I can't believe a Sprinter van works very well with the front wheels off innocent

Anyone know what the weight distribution of a M3W is?
Probably 75/25?

There is an early video review of the M3W that has a spec sheet up front. I can't remember for sure, and I thought I had it marked, but I believe it was 61/39 if memory serves correctly. I'm not sure if that was loaded or empty though.

Many thanks for all the suggestions. There has not been an overwhelming interest in the boat trailer adaptation. In fact the smallest trailer in this range by Brian James is not much bigger:

It would allow loading frontwards and would need a folding aluminium ramp for the rear wheel. Price seems very competitive with what I was quoted.

I'm currently looking at Lider trailers and they do a tilt bed for less than the Brian James transporter type, looks ideal for a M3W, watch this space!

Yea they're great but as far as I know no one makes them in the U.K. or Europe and it would cost a fortune to import one.
