Travel in style, or perhaps not? What to take, What to leave behind.

Well, there are no smaller trailers (that I have seen) which are basically more lightweight than the typical offroader, which are more biased to kitchen facilities without the need to carry tents, so would basically carry your foodstuffs, cooking apparatus, fridge, washing up and tables, a couple of chairs and a lightwieght ground tent.

Simon,

Here is my
smaller trailer which is basically a mobile covered kitchen and storage
.

It is cheap and light weight and always eager to please.

4ePajero will be glad to see enough tables, comfy chairs, 70L 3-way freezer, wash-up facilities. I don't do the electric cable thing though. Paraffin and candles light our camp at night. All the other tools and stuff go in the nose cone. The SWB Paj doesn't have that wonderful storage well, when the 3rd seat is removed of my previous 5door where i used to stick the tools and emergency stuff.

Try Eagle trailers. I have one of their smaller luggage trailers which is fibreglass and of excellent quality. They have an offroad version called a Kalahari, which might meet your requirements.
