Back box or trailer

Postby kizmax » Wed Apr 17, 2013 6:47 pm

I have a mk5 and I use uk , Irish and French ferries , problem is storage the trailer I have is great for the extra storage but it costs money on the ferry
My option is to sell the trailer and buy a box for the back of the van
Problem is can I find a box or carry system that will take a box and two bikes
Any help appreciated :?:

They'll just charge you for the extra length of the van, so you may not gain anything.
( Night xings on the train are cheap this year & length isn't an issue)

Good luck
