Cosy Car – other models: the collective page of light car trailers outside the named ranges, from 365 S and 425 T to Cosy Car 1200 and 1400 L, 550 to 670 kg unladen weight, 787 to 1,000 kg gross weight
This page gathers the Cosy Car trailers the register could not assign to a named range. The brand name already marks the models as light car trailers, with types ranging from 365 S and 425 T through 1200, 1400 D/D and 1600 to the fully spelt-out Cosy Car 1200 and Cosy Car 1400 L; T and S clearly mark different equipment or body variants. As with many smaller trailer brands, the programme is drawn from registration data, in which each model is listed individually with its technical values.

The register lists here 12 versions with unladen weights from 550 to 670 kg, gross weights from 787 to 1,000 kg and widths from 1,970 to 2,130 mm.
With gross weights consistently under one tonne, the whole programme sits in the class of unbraked or lightly braked car trailers, towable for garden, workshop and smaller transport loads behind almost any car. For registration behind a car, besides the trailer's gross weight the tow vehicle's rated towing capacity is also decisive, since it sets the real limit for the load towed.
On a used example, axle and wheel-bearing condition, the function of the brake or overrun mechanism, rust on frame and side walls, lighting and plug, and tyres and rims all count. Parts for such small brands usually run through independent trailer workshops. On versions with an overrun brake, the adjustment of the brake linkage and the condition of the brake linings are also worth checking before the first drive.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
- Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
- Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
- Compare the chassis number with the papers.
- Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
