S Reg Ford Cargo 6 cylinder (whatever that means!)

Decent conversion (looks coach built) about 2 years ago, a few little scuffs but generally looks very smart.

Quite high mileage (approx 250,000km, though my mechanic says that's irrelevant)

Partitioned for 2/ 3 horses, rubber mats, stockboarding, nice partitions, all in excellent condition.

Small living: cooker, sink, upholstered seating, but no fridge or loo.

Tack area and skirt lockers.

Many thankies

Cargos dont seem to be selling very much at the mo... there are lots that have been advertised for a long time. Id say more 7k... who built it?

Are you kidding?!

It's an Euro Cargo 75E15 not one of the old cargos (they only go up to H or J reg). I was told that they are the most popular chassis for large horses, so why are they not selling?

I think it was built by these guys:

http://www.jmhorseboxes.co.uk/

They have a T reg on their web site for £21k plus VAT ie over £24k inc VAT, and that only has unfitted living. Mine is a bit smaller, but has a fitted living, so I thought worth about £18 -£20k (obviously no VAT as private sale).

Looks like I may not be selling if the market's that bad

Thank you, pathelschoice, I can take the rope down from the rafters! Couldn't believe I was that far off, as there don't seem to many decent boxes around for under £20k

Just looked at you website btw, your boxes are just awsome.

I would think so, as S reg DAF conversion we did about 4 years ago recently was resold for 27K, and it only had a little more on it than the above.
