    Iveco horsebox indicator problems.

    Just as it’s been through it’s plating the indicators on my box have stopped working. When you either put the indicators on or the hazards it’s just one long continuous beep and none of the indicators come on. The light on the dash for the indicator comes on but doesn’t flash as it...

    Long boots for short wide legs

    Sure this has been done to death but can anyone recommend any long boots that don’t cost the earth for very wide calves (45cm) but small ankles. I’ve ordered a pair of fuller fillies which are no good as yes I can fasten them but then they are so baggy on my ankles I’ve struggled to...

    Speedo not working on horsebox

    Sent my lorry to have the tachograph calibrated as its an HGV. It’s come back now with the Speedo no longer working. It’s an old Iveco. Has anyone had this problem and know if it’s an easy problem to fix?

    Driving a HGV horsebox.

    Clutch has now been replaced so got the train up to Scotland at the weekend and brought it down. Motorway is great, gear changes still not great but I’ll hopefully get there with lots of practice!

    Driving a HGV horsebox.

    I’ve recently passed my Class C so can now drive a HGV rigid horsebox. I learnt and did my test in an automatic. However my licence is full so I can drive a manual. This worried me at the time as I knew when I’d come to buy a horsebox I wouldn’t be able to afford a newer automatic...

    Search for HGV horsebox

    Yes I’m thinking of just waiting until Winter and hoping I might find something then! Didn’t realise it would be this hard to find something.
