Costs of lorrys?

[Hovis_and_SidsMum]

Can you give me an idea of what kind of price is reasonable to pay for a 7.5T horse lorry?
It doesn't have to be anything flash as it'd only be for hubby and I to go to some local shows, to the beach etc. Both our lads are huge so it needs to be that kind of weight / height and hubby is HGV qualified so he can drive it no problems.
Can anyone recommend a company / somewhere that sells lorrys near Lincoln?

I paid £8000 and a bit for mine,its a FORD and i have had no problems with it what so ever in the 2 years that i have owned it,no breakdown and not too expensive on services

As you have two biggies, you need to be really careful that you aren't over the maximum weight when you are fully laden - it is easy to end up being over 7.5 tonnes by the time you have two big horses, people, diesel, tack, water, living etc. If your hubby has an HGV licence, it would be better to go for an HGV lorry as these tend to be cheaper. Have a look on Horsemart - they always have loads.
