This page collects the Breston trailers that the register does not assign to any named series. Breston is a Dutch manufacturer based in Hardenberg that builds, among other things, agricultural trailers and tippers; the types listed here, B.R.2000, BR 2000, BR 3500, BR2000 and BR3500, come from Dutch registration data and already carry the weight class in their designation.

The register lists 5 versions here with unladen weights from 890 to 1,510 kg, gross weights from 2,000 to 3,500 kg and widths from 1,770 to 2,050 mm.

With gross weights of 2 to 3.5 tonnes, all versions listed here fall into EU trailer category O2, for which an overrun brake is required above 750 kg. Towing only needs licence category B as long as the combination's gross weight stays below 3,500 kg, otherwise category BE becomes necessary.

With gross weights of 2 to 3.5 tonnes, these trailers fall into the class that can be towed on a category BE licence behind vans or stronger cars; they sit in the segment of small agricultural and commercial haulage typical of Dutch trailer manufacturers of this size.

When buying used, check the condition of the axle and wheel bearings, the operation of the overrun brake and brake linkage, rust on the chassis and drawbar, and the condition of lighting and the electrical connector as well as tyres and wheels. Spare parts for such small makes usually come through independent trailer workshops rather than a manufacturer network.

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.
