Hi,

Coming to the end of a camping trip in our MG5 Trophy where we just about got everything in the boot, roof box and around the children! We've been toying with the idea of a trailer tent for next year but a couple of things are holding us back:

1. Charging on long journeys. Most chargers wouldn't be practical with a trailer, so we'd probably have to unhitch, leave the trailer to charge and come back to it. This feels a bit much

2. The range effect of a trailer tent - as if it has a big impact it'll make the hassle of #1 above even more annoying.

Any real world experiences of trailer tents (or long journeys with a trailer) gratefully received. From searching it looks like @Jerry is pulling a trailer tent with a ZS (and welcome your views on the above!) But not sure about anyone doing the same with an MG5.

Thanks!
 
Thanks for the reply. I believe they're rated up to 500kg - previously had a PFL that was not.
 
Commenting to see replies, I've been considering a tow bar for bike racks but wasn't sure if this impacts warranty etc. I also have a facelift 5
