Are you looking for a manufacturer or online shopping for a used van? Automatics still aren’t very common. May be easier to get one made.

I've seen one for sale today but as I'm looking at loads of adverts I cannot remember exactly where ,it may have been Facebook quite a few groups for 3.5 for sale.

Agreed. Buy your own automatic van and get it converted. Recommendations for manufacturer would depend on where you are and how far you're willing to travel.

Plenty of horsebox builders will source a van to your specifications. That would probably be much easier than trying to find a used automatic box that has already been converted. Nearly all of those will be manual.

When I looked at autotrader a few weeks ago there were only about 2 automatic Renault Masters for sale and one was about £40k

This is what I am doing. Have bought a Renault Master van. Staffordshire horseboxes are building me a horsebox on it.
