Some one who manufactures boat trailers should be able to provide a custom setup. Something specially designed for the size/weight of your Mini would be the best option. You will have no trouble finding a 2 wheel setup that will easily handle the weight of a Mini.

Decisions, no way l wanted to stop and change it out in a snow Bank, so just kept on going, exit off the Interstate and drive into Altoona, find a tire shop and in an hour l am back on the road
If l had my single axle trailer, l would have been " Dead in the water"

I looked up both their weights the Polaris came in at 1369 lbs and the Smart car 1800 lbs. As Mini's weigh 1200 to 1500 lbs it would seem the trailers have the hauling capacity.
As always though it pays to ask questions before the sale and be safe.

The trailer i have been looking at is made by Aluma and they come in many shapes and sizes. The ones i am looking at are 12 and 14 foot lengths ranging from $2900 for the basic to around $4500 for the larger one with brakes and a heavier rated axle spare tire detachable fenders etc.
I also own a double axle enclosed trailer but you need a pick up to pull it as it is a beast and a brick wall going down the road so fuel mileage is not great.
I learnt from owning my last aluminum trailer and am done with buying steel trailers they just go to $hit and look like crap whether you use them weekly or not, the aluminum ones will go dull but not rot away on you and the resale is far better.
