Posted on here a while ago about buying a new trailer and asking your reccomendations. Im not bothered if I have a second hand one as really dont want to spend more than £3000 although if I wait a bit longer I could have a new one. I dont want an Ifor as Ive just sold one and you dont seem to see many other make 2nd hand for sale.
Problem is my horse has really only travelled in a wagon and doesnt seem keen at all in a trailer, very very nervous so Im really worried we will spend a lot on a good one and end up with him only ever settling in a wagon. Wagon isnt an option.
Would you buy a really cheap one and play around over the winter with the intention of replacing it if all goes well or just go for a good one. Im so paranoid about floors that Im thinking by the time Ive bought an old one, had the floor checked or renewed and serviced it, it may be a false economy. Are there any obvious things to look out for safety wise apart from the floor and tyres.
