I need advice on buying a covered trailer, Covered trailer for a 914 Options

[Mary Shortridge]

I want to get a covered trailer for hauling Buttercup around to tell her AMAZING story. I am SOOOOOOO frustrated talking to trailer salespeople. They want to sell me what they have on their lot. I want them to listen to my needs, which are as follows:
914 weighs 2300 pounds
My car will tow 5000 pounds, so I want a lightweight trailer
I would like to have it be a low profile, less than 68", the height of my car that will pull the trailer
A v-nose would be nice to help with wind (We have a LOT of that around here)
I would like a side door to make accessibility easier
A friend suggested a clamshell, like this

I need a simple system for tying the 914 down, as I will often be by myself, and I have never dealt with a trailer before... this is a whole new deal for me.
I was told there are net-type wraps for the wheels.
ANY advice/help would be GREATLY appreciated, to save me from making a poor choice. (or losing my mind dealing with unhelpful trailer salespeople)
Thanks a million!!!

Here ya go.
All aluminum 1950 curb weight. Less if you order it shorter in height.
You'll need ramps though as the back door/ramp would be too steep.
But it would be the lightest enclosed trailer you can get.
Also tricky to get in/out of your teener when its in the trailer. But I'll take that trade off for less trailer and less weight.

Here's the short height you wanted. A little heavier cause the frame is steel.

I just researched these for hauling my bikes OR my teener.

All aluminum are not cheap. But with fuel costs these days I believe you would recoup the extra money spent pretty quick if you use it a lot.

Flat bed is the cheapest way to go. I have had mine on a 6x12 and it works fine. I would be sure to get the dual axle though.
My two cents.
