2008.

My box is 600x400x400 and cost £125.10 including delivery and VAT.



The 3D Cases FAE.003387 is 750 x 350 x 310 and 81 litres

An alternative would be the FAE.003385 which is 590 x 590 x 420 and 115 litres = £227.64 inc delivery and VAT - so you get more for less :?

It's a shame ukshelving don't stock them anymore :(

It's light and strong and it's lockable too.
I bought it from UK Shelving, but it seems they don't do them any more.

A quick Google brings these up identical to mine.

My choice for the LARGE Carry Freedom trailer
1 x FAE.003387 @ £233

OUCH :cry:

Sounds about right for what I paid for my box.
I've also cut 1/3 out of the middle of the box and pop riveted the two parts back together as I didn't need to full size box.
Plus you can now see my rack mounted read dynamo light over the top of the box.

Third photo there -> http://www.cycle4cynthia.co.uk/gallery.php?catid=11 has probably the best shot of my trike-trailer rig.
