You ought to be a little bit careful with that sort of thing, as whilst it isn't the public road, at least parts of the Road Traffic Act and the requirements that go with it do apply to publicly accessible areas like shopping centres.
the place we took it too, was owned by Home base that not long closed its doors, so the place is disused now, In fact we saw a couple of people learning to drive around in there, and practicing. I think its the only area now that and silksworth car park, that normally gets used for learners to practice in.
We weren't there all that long, in fact took us longer to get there, than we were there. Just a case of going around their little car park, testing the corners for any knocks and seeing if all was well. Then hooked it back on the tow bar and we went back. Be lucky if we were there not even 20 mins.
Got some odd looks mind, With the f*cking hell when was the last time you saw one of those!
like say it was a gamble,
