Ok, thanks - but not the best constructive advice I've ever had. What sort of price would be interesting then?

I know what I will sell it for but if I start there then I have nowhere to go. I don't want to sell it for peanuts as it is basically a very good lorry with not many miles on the clock.

Yep, I just got this message too when I checked.
 
The only thing I would say is, unless Im being thick and havent read it properley, its not really clear how old it is.
I sold an L Reg converted Ford Transit in very good nick with only a few jobs needing doing on it, with 10 months MOT and 3 months tax for only £2000 if that helps.
 
I've got similar and would advertise it at 5K ono. The only thing is, I think you need to put the mileage in the advert unless its painfully high.
 
I think some better photos would help - you can't really see it and it possible makes it look even scruffier becasue the pics are so dark. Can't you give it a wash over the weekend and take some new pics? I know it's hassle, but if it gets you your 5k...?

Pics of the inside would be good, too.
 
Give reg year/age, wash it, pics of clean and tidy interior for living and horse area

What's under the new rubber floor?

Too short an MOT, can you get a full year on it.
 
Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the heading say carries 3 without living? It then goes on to describe the living in the advert.
If I was looking for a lorry with living I wouldn't look at this advert.

Hope that helps

I think you should state the year/Reg of the vehicle, also, as suggested, the mileage.
 
Arwen, I sold my C reg Iveco in April for £5000 on Horsemart in 10 days. It looked a bit tidier than yours but had a higher mileage. The ad doesn't say the age of yours. When I was looking for my replacement the main problem I found was finding the dimensions of horse and living areas. if you add this it'll stop wasted phone calls as people will know beforehand.
