B+E is easy, get someone who has done it to show you the layout with cones in a carpark or field, practice coupling, read up on speed restrictions/legislation etc, get a trailer with overrun brakes and any landy and book the test..

i wouldnt use your landy though ed :001_tongue:

 

im looking to do my B+E, with local jobs requiring a trailer to be towed that exceeds my licence, it makes it awkward, soemtimes ive just done it myself, ive driven a tractor with a large trailer, a car and trailer is actually easier!

 

i would choose B+E and chipper, you are trained in 31, may aswell get some practice or some use out of your kit before you can get your assessment again

my thinking exactly rob.

 

ive already experience in towing and reversing and id like to consider my self ok at it.

 

Ive got a landy (series 3) but at the moment its in the project stage, nearly done though! just re-routed the brake lines, rebuilt the swivels, steering, relay and ball joints.

 

now just tidying it up!

Youwill probably benefit more by getting your b plus e as not many people my age have it. So it would be a massive advantage over other young people.

 

I'm saving up to do mine ATM but it's 600 Inc training and test

you shouldnt need the training rob, i'll show you how to pass, when you come to pick up your executive chair we'll get disco and ifor trailer and have a practice course if you want. then its just like a driving test for half hour. save money just paying for test..

Depending on when you trained, I think the CS31 assessment has winches in it now as well.

 

:confused1: Dont think so pal I done mine ealier in the year and they ask you 3 saftey things to remeber about the winch If a winch is needed the assecor gets it out but they dont assces you for what you do or help them to do.

 

32 (medium trees) covers alot of winching.
