Hello,
I have been nervously looking for a 6.5 ton first timer horsebox & have found one at Priory Stud which is a traditional wooden one. It has been totally refurbed internally, replaced onto a Isuzo T reg low mileage chassis. I really do like the box & very much trust the guys selling it but am slightly nervous about the traditional wood exterior, I have been told that a once a year varnish will preserve its condition, but is there anything else I need to be aware of. I am local to the garage so they know I would be taking it there for testing etc so am happy about the work they have carried out but just would like to be doubly sure of what I am getting into!! Buying a horsebox is such a minefiled with so much to consider, I am happy with the unladen weight side of things & everything else appears very genuine but should I be checking into anything else.
Thank you so much for any advice forthcoming.
