Default Trailers, where cn you buy them & low loading varieties?

Again looking long term at getting something i can or potentially at least take my car to track days etc so where can you buy trailers from, good bad or otherwise?
Also having had to wait an additional few hours at pod while the recovery folks pea'd about finally getting a proper low loader to take away a friends poorly RX7 are there any particular trailers which are good for ground clearance.
The only one my RX7 has been on a trailer attached to a car wasn't a problem but that's probably cause at the time i'd just removed the front end via a crash barrier so ground clearance wasn't an issue but normally it would so any trailer tips folks?
Cheers

Indespension make one through another company, which is a goodun. Dunno where your local stockist is though. There's definately one in Liverpool though, as I work there

Try http://www.indespension.co.uk/hotribs_offers.htm , and go to 'business' at the top, and 'transporters' at the bottom.

Whereabouts are you anyway?

There's an indespension dealers in Halesowen. And another place called Towsure. Maybe a bit far for Coventry, but I don't think there's a closer branch.

Brian James Trailers are by far the best although I'm probably biased as they're good mates of mine. They also supply Indespension although I'm not sure if they're BJTs or badged Indespension.
