Got two of my trailers built from pat, both my tandem car trailer and custom plant trailer for work! Couldn't be happier with the way they both tow and the quality build. If you want a strong reliable trailer, don't look anywhere else !

Extremely happy with the 4.5 tonne plant trailer. I shopped around for months in Adelaide. Quality and value for money don't often go in the same sentence, but it does with Pats trailers. Was well worth the effort to have it trucked to SA.
