My Renault Master has been in with a reputable, well known to me local horsebox builders for a few minor tweaks recently and they noticed some staining to the bulkhead covering as a result of a tiny leak.
When they got my permission to investigate further they found that a) the bulkhead was not as up-to-the-job as I'd been led to believe by the original builder (who has since stopped trading) and used different, less safe materials and b) all the wood had rotted through due to the leak and poor construction.
A new bulkhead etc. is on order, but perhaps its worth asking your trusted horsebox man what he thinks about yours next time it's in for a service or repair. After all, 3.5s do put our horse's feet and our heads in very close proximity...
