Car Trailers
Good morning, can anybody offer advice on the following; I am thinking of having a towbar fitted to my car, which is Italian registered. The procedure for this is clear to me regarding a revision for the car and a change to the insurance policy. The confusion starts with buying and legally using a Trailer.
I have heard that if you register the trailer only to the plate of the car, then the car can only be sold with the trailer. I have also heard that to avoid this, you have to independently register the Trailer with it's own plate (no matter what size) and also attach a plate matching the car?
Has anyone any understanding of correct procedures/information and ideas of costs?
Regards

I had one fitted to my Cherokee . Cost was 990 Euros. I got the trailer for nothing.

Re: Car Trailers
The rimorchio (trailer) has its own plate, different from the car. With a towbar you will pay higher insurance and bollo
