any horseboxes for sale?

[suegreenaway]

Well I've decided its going to be cheaper to run a small car and a lorry then do my trailer test and run a big 4x4 as I do a lot of running about and being 24 its somehow cheaper to insure a lorry than a 4x4?!!

So im looking for a truck to carry 2 horses, no bigger than 7.5t but the smaller the better. Don't mind what it looks like as long as its safe and reliable and as im often alone at events a light ramp would be nice!! Near cheltenham but would travel. Budget of £3000 - I know that probably won't get me much but its all I've got!!*

Thankyou in advance if anybody knows of anything.

Seems very good deal. But have a feeling it is a scam.

Bit over priced but it is a lorry

Ooh, thats a bit tight moneywise. Be very careful what you buy as the cost of running and maintaining an older lorry can be huge. Also it's hard to get spares for some older models. Watch the weight too if you intend carrying two.

Thanks bluebellfreddy, worth following up.

I know lamlyn2012 but its all I can afford and I cant afford to run and insure a big 4x4 for the mileage I do. If I can at least buy one with a years plating on it i'll have it for a year hopefully.
