where on earth are all the horseboxes?

[digitalangel]

im getting so frustrated with trying to buy a horsebox, ive been looking for 6 weeks now and ive seen 2, one was terrible, the other lovely and if the living slept more than 1 i wold have snapped it up! ive got a good budget of around 25k, i know i can get one built for that but i dont want to wait weeks/months and have all the hassle of having one built, plus all the ones i can find for that money seem to be dodgy cowboys with no company address etc..

theres nothing on ebay, horsemart, horsequest, horsedeals, horseexchange, i dont like the thorpe boxes and the coachbuilders i do like dont have anything in stock and are above my budget anyway.

So does anyone want to sell me one of theirs? or know of any good lorries for sale locally? want something 51+ reg, that will carry 2x horses +1x pony, thats no a rechassis job, with a nice functional living that sleeps 4 and a shower/toilet. nothing fancy! perhaps i am asking for too much???

the worst thing is, i thought it would take ages to sell my box bt it was snapped up for the asking price by the first people who viewed it and i now have no transport! argh !


help!

We were in this situation a year ago(with way smaller budget!) Took us months to find something but it was worth the wait in the end!

I have one! I was planning on selling it at the end of the hunting season though - it's sligtly older (1998) but low mileage and well maintained. Always had everything done that needed doing

I like the fact that since it is pre-2001, it doesn't have to have a apeed limiter fitted
