Hi all,
I am looking for recommendations for a trailer (or two). The details are...
-For general use and livestock... moving hay, food and animals
- For animals, max load will be 2 x dexters or 2 x large pigs per trip
- To be towed on std driving license, behind a l200
- Happy to diy walls for supports (hay/trees/etc)
- Need to be legal (somebody said on another post it has to be side loading for the abattoir?)
- Last forever, but cost the minimum (ha ha)
I have seen others say that for 2 x dexters, you need an 8 x 5.. so was looking at a GP85DB from edwards, but with a conversion kit, its coming in at 3800 plus vat for basic. And i think i need to add a ramp, spare tyre etc to that. Gulp. Seems a lot for a handful of journeys a year.
I was wondering if it was better to rent (is that money down the sink) when needed, or may cheaper to get a animal mover and a general trailer as separates.
Anyone have any advice?
Ps.... this thread got me thinking as well....
