Another lorry Q - what can i get for £25k

[sammiea]

I have taken a deposit on my lorry so the hunt is on for a new on

I am looking to upgrade in chassis age (mine is on a M) want decent living, carry 3 horses. Can be 7.5 or over as i have hgv. Tack lockers & have the H style partitions. I do have other various "would likes" but wont go into those.

Also prepared to by something that living hasnt been fitted as long as horse area is ready to go.

What do you think i can get for my money???

probably quite a lot at the moment. Things are selling slowly so think a lot of people are trying to sell quickly - when I was looking I looked back through older (1 or 2 months) magazines and called anything that I liked the look of. Liklihood is, if they still have it after 2months of advertising they will take an offer to get rid! Im sure you will get a lovely lorry for that price.

this is what i am hoping, having real problems with people getting back to me though. I feel it's better for them to send more pictures via email so i know if its exactly what i want before i waste mine & their time for it not to be right but obviously not

Unfortunately - we had exactly the same problem when looking for one! eventually gave ourselves at 65 miles radius as was looking at complete rubbish. Also we were looking at something to fit a 17.2 and they all said they would be big enough - and they were tiny! Have you looked into having one built? Im sure if you had a word with some companies you could - put it this way - I had mine built on an R-reg cab - for about £10k less than you are looking to spend! I would definatley call around some horsebox builders and let them know what you are after, Im sure you could get one built to spec if you dont mind waiting a couple of months to get exactly what you want!
