As a general question, and as not dealing in the movement of small vehicles, at a little over 2 tons, can RRs in general be transported legally on a normal car trailer?

Looks like I'll need to lift the body to sort out a noisey exhaust manifold on my 2010 3.6 TDV8.

Any wheel will be transmitting the same force back to the mounting/centre.
More material over a given area will not reduce that 'shock', merely spread it better.

Do the 4 pot Brembo front brake calipers as fitted to a 2010 TDV8 have a value as an upgrade or as a secondhand purchase?
Thanks
