This trailer is the only one of its kind in the world!! There was only one ever made. They had 10 on order but the trailer cost more than they were hoping so they cancelled the other 9. There are other enclosed car carriers but none of them can carry big cars like this one. Under the chrome strip is a curtain (cannot open it) but it's so u can push the car doors into it so it doesnt damage the doors and so u can squeeze out  It also has 3 separate top decks so you can angle the cars to get bigger cars on. And a separate belly deck so you can drop the car right down. The tail gate opens up and spreads out almost 8 metres so you can get low cars on it (nissan GT-R R35). Enclosed trailers are also so people can't see what cars are being carried. |

There are other enclosed car carriers but they aren't as good.
It is a sweet trailer to work with (when it wants to work).
They have patched up the electronics too much so now the hydraulic oil overheats cause it can't get in the trailer and flow around. Instead it stops at the first valve on the trailer, and causing it to overheat so then you have trouble lifting decks sometimes. Most of the time it works well.

They say "Oh if we patch it up here that will fix it" And they patch it up and nothing works hahahaha..
Recently they re-wired it and for now it's working fine.
