I know hehe, but ye if you're anywhere near a building site some 200*45 cut to about 1-1.5 m and place it about 1/4-1/3 of the way up the ramps, of course then you have the problem of the undercarriage snagging as it gets to about half way on, for this you would need to jack up the hitch point.

In what way is air transport better? I can see no way that it is an advantage. Unless you have to travel a fantastic distance. Perhaps it is really cheap in England, but, here in Australia, I imagine it is pretty hefty.

Used the rubber spacers before when we use to tow the race cars around ,I think I got them from a trailer shop ,so try your luck there and if they don't have them they will know where to get them .Plus we found if we where to go far ( more than a 100 kays we would take them out while it was on the trailer as it seemed to sit better .
But the best way to go . Good luck with it anyway . |

Ah, you are assuming we are talking about massive distances. I can understand flying a car from one side of europe to the other, but moving a couple of hundred k's really isn't worth the effort. See, the odds of there being a major airport(one that has transport planes for vehicles) near both the depature and destination points is pretty bloody slim.
As for putting a low car onto a trailer; Some trailers can tilt, they pivot about the axle giving a less steep angle for the ramp. If that isn't available, try puting a long plank on each ramp, this can make for a much less steep angle, making it easier for you to get it on and off.
