Horsebox advice pleaaaase

[Eira]

Well we have a VW MAN 8136 that really needs a bit of TLC . Can anyone reccomend somewhere that will re-spray the shed on wheels

?
And any reccomendations on people who re-fit living , as we want it stripped and redone

Thanks

ETS: Anybody know what a resonable estimate for the above would be , we think we have enough money (horse fund) but we are not sure

It depends on what you want in the living really. We are having our new box fitted to include Hob, oven, grill, fridge, sink, clothes cupboard, seating, table, luton sleeping area, a small number of storage cupboards, electrics fitted, external hook up, skirt locker fitted and painted for storing gas bottle and water bottle for just over £4000. It would depend on your budget and what you wanted!!!

Ahh that what we want minus the skirt locker as we already have the locker there for gas .
Price sounds very reasonable , are you doing any of the work yourself or is it all being re-done for you ?
Just trying to work out if value of lorry would increase abit or if we ever sold it we would loose even more money

Ours is on a 6.5T box. The living area is already carpeted with a seat/ storage area but this is being taken out. We are starting on a blank canvas really. We had another quote for £5500 for the same stuff. The company we have gone with are very good and weve seen their work so we chose the cheaper one!!! If you want to Oak walls its extra. We decisded it was well worth the money to do it professionally and we would get the money back if we sell.

Oh it included laminiate floor too

4-5 K for a good living

2 K plus for a repsray, assuming not any significant body reposrs needed,

No major work needs doing just a squiffy panel need re-bending

Thats what we thought it would cost

Any reccomendations who to use for the refurb ? Would rather them be recomennded
