Additional measurements
Front locker

The front locker is 70cm wide and 50cm deep.
Ground clearance
18.3cm from the bottom lip of the shell to the ground.
Garage storage
Please allow 210cm clearance where possible - due to the nature of the fibreglass manufacturing process, there are slight variations in the total height between Go-Pods.

Weights
MiRO
Mass in Running Order (MiRO) - sometimes referred to as the "factory weight" or "unladen weight" of a caravan.
580kg (2021 models onwards - previous models were 540kg)
MTPLM
Maximum Technically Permissible Laden Mass - sometimes referred to as the "gross weight", "plated weight" or "laden weight" of a caravan.
750kg*
* The vast majority of Go-Pods have a plated weight/MTPLM of 750kg. Some Go-Pods are instead plated at 1,000kg, but only if the "plated weight upgrade" was purchased by the original customer at the point of ordering. Plated weight upgrades are processed at our factory and cannot be applied retrospectively. All of our Go-Pod listings specify the plated weight in the info table at the very top of the description.
Payload
Payload is the remaining weight allowance for items to be carried inside a Go-Pod. This is calculated by subtracting the MiRO from the MTPLM. The weight of any fitted accessories must be taken into account and added to the MiRO.
The standard payload is 170kg for Go-Pods with an MTPLM of 750kg.

Nose Weight
The downward force of the front of a caravan on your tow vehicle's tow ball.
49kg (does not account for gas bottles or other items stored inside - add the weights of these items to this figure).
Wheels & Tyres
Wheel Size
13 inches
Tyre Size
175/70 R13 86N*
* This is the standard tyre size fitted to Go-Pods - they're specially manufactured for trailers with reinforced walls. A suitable alternative for Go-Pods with an MTPLM of 750kg is 175/70 R13 82T.
Tyre Pressure
35psi
Nut Torque
65lbs/88NM*
*Torque settings for alloy wheels are 95lbs/128NM.
GAS BOTTLES
Calor Gas 3.9kg propane
The most popular choice by far - available nationwide.
As with all gas bottles, you'll pay a higher price on your first purchase to cover the cost of the bottle. When needing to replenish, you will swap the bottle for a full one and only pay a refilling fee.
Flogas
3.9kg propane
Available at most B&M stores nationwide.
2 collar sizes available - only 340mm height version suitable for use with Go-Pods. Collection in person recommended to ensure correct size.
Flogas
4.5kg butane
Available at most B&M stores nationwide.
Butane gas, so less effective at lower temperatures. May require different regulator due to pressure difference between butane & propane gas bottles.
Campingaz
R907 butane
Smallest of all compatible bottles, but widely available in Europe.
Also butane, so less effective at lower temperatures. Will require Campingaz proprietary adapter for connection.
