They look in fairly poor condition to me.

Too little time, too much to read.
Cute but I wouldn't like to have to keep them looking spotless.

I thought similar, but could be age/way stood.
Does higher 3 figures each not mean just short of £1k? (not £3k each?)

Is being broken to drive at 2 less bad than being started under saddle at 2? Does it impact their bodies differently?

I suppose that COULD mean pulling a tyre about whilst lead.

They dont have weight on their back, so not as bad. But its not normal for driving. These sound like they have had a poor start so you're probably storing up all sorts of issues for the future. Hopefully someone buys them and gives them a nice home. I'm sure they are very sweet just a typical badly bred, badly started and no doubt badly put together pair.

Well that depends on what community of drivers you're talking about. It's normal with Travellers, Romanies and harness racers and that's probably the majority of drivers in the UK.

I would say so, but only if they aren't hammered up and down the roads or raced round a track. But unfortunately, those are the people who break them to drive at 2.

I was trying to avoid bringing anything to do with travellers into it, they also break to ride at 2 which wouldn't be considered normal either. What I should have said is its not normal with good ethical drivers.

It always makes me chuckle that the sort of people that drive foals are quite firm about other things. Someone I know would never drive his horse on a road without shoes, not even for a short time, because it's cruel apparently. Yet they think nothing of hammering a one or two year old up a road as fast as its legs will go. 
. It's the same sort of mentality that thinks it's ok to drive at 2, but not to put a lightweight rider on its back. Personally, I don't think either is ok.
