Hi my name is Kevin and my wife Ingrid and I have recently purchased a motor home since I retired. I would welcome any tips when out and about in the road. I have just made a tow dolly to take a microcar (500cc) around as looking at some of sites it might be a long walk to get to some towns near sites. Been rather adventurous we have booked the Passion play in Germany next year and definitely need advice for that trip

    A garage can use a dolly as it’s for recovery work but it is a different matter for general use. 

    DD is right and has given you good advice. Don’t fall foul of the law either here or abroad.

    Enjoy your travels.

    Kevin, in Germany you will need to have your car on a trailer with brakes and lights.   If you take  a car on a tow dolly or an A frame behind your Motorhome you will soon be pulled over by the German police.
