Thank you Rog, that clarifies everything for me!

Hi Rog Can I just double check the details if poss please - My car is a freelander 1, so kerb weight 1555kg, towing capacity 2000kg and GVW 2050kg. I have just bought an IW401 which weighs 770kg. My horse weighs a maximum of 425-450kg. I thought it was 1555 + 770 = 2325, leaving 1175 to play...

GVW is 2050

Freelander Kerb weight is 1555kg, towing capacity 2000kg

Thanks Greylegs that sounds great! Very lucky you had your phone with you that time!

Hi yes for B licence towing, and because I have a freelander. I will get the trailer downplated, and I have a lightweight horse (Arab). From what I've read they seem to have very positive reviews and I've seen a few around that look great although they tend to be the newer 403s. Is the 401 and...

Hi there I wondered if anyone could advise on the Ifor Wiiliams Aingle horse trailers as I am looking to buy one secondhand. I wondered if there is much difference between the 401 and 403 apart from just age and a few updates, and mainly if anyone that has owned one has ever had any issues with...

Many thanks for your replies, have taken your advice and just ordered a 6' in the brown stripe. From Hope Valley funnily enough! :-)

Hi there I just wondered if anyone has one of these 200g stable rugs, and if so how you found the sizing of it? I know Amigos can come up a bit smaller, my 15.2hh Arab mare is in a 6' Amigo Bravo, but I am wondering if the same size in a Rambo stable rug might be too roomy?

My 7 year old Arab mare was away on loan and developed matching splints on both front legs last year or so, she is not lame and I don't think she ever was lame on them, however she is now back with me and still has them and I have been googling to try to find out if they'll ever just go away by...

I've been looking at new show saddles and I am now at the point of wondering whether to buy a half-suede one or if I should be practical and go for a full leather version. I really love the look of seude saddles and the stickability they offer, but how easy are they to look after for everyday...

Slinkyunicorn I am looking for a show saddle, and it will probably have to be made to template, I have been offered a very good price on a new Harry Dabbs, but as they are not as popular as the Ideals and Fyldes etc I wondered what people thought. I will obviously buy what suits my horse best....

I am looking at ordering a Harry Dabbs show saddle, I wondered if anyone has one and what you think of them? I don't know much about them. One of the things I like is they can be adjusted by a saddler for only around £30.

This thread is brilliant :-D

Thank you all for your comments, I think may order an XS. I wonder why they got the sizing so wrong on these jackets, it's very odd!
