ifor williams prices

[helm]

I'm trying to twist my husbands arm in letting me buy a trailer. It's a big expense. Someone I know is selling their Ifor Williams. Would take two horses. I think it's a good few years old but It does have a metal floor with matting on. Nice nick although some of the door hinges are a bit rusty and the wheel arch has been knocked. She wants min 2 grand. Is that too much????

Sounds about right from what you describe.

IW's do hold there value well so ur not likely to get one really cheap unless it lived through the war lol

i reckon 2 grand ish would be ok if its bout 5-7 years old and u do have the plus pionts that its a friend selling it so u have known the trailer and hopefully they wouldnt rip u off,
Also if ur going to use it every week and u already have the car to pull it then it would be a good buy IMO

I got my 5year old 505 for £2200, but tbh it's a minefield and if you find one you know has been used and you have the history of then that is a major bonus. IW trailers tend to need to be over 10 years and often a lot more to go below the 2 grand mark. Often they are making silly money, look on ebay and you'll see, some older trailers are reaching the same prices as the 2 year old ones.

Sounds like a good price to me, especially if it has a new floor.
