I've been looking to buy a 2nd hand 10ft flatbed trailer for some time. It's to be used on our horticultural holding and to help with our self build home. I've been given different advice, though most people recommend the older ifor williams trailers for some reason.
I've seen a 10 x 6' trailer for sale in England. It would mean a good journey from West Wales to get there and would appreciate any advice from those who have owned or used similar trailers.
The price is £1400 and the condition looks pretty good. It's a 2005 model with drop sides and a tall tail gate. I wasn't looking for a tail gate as we don't keep livestock, though maybe it has some good uses as a ramp.
I'm told the electrics work and the suspension is good. The deck appears to be made from wood or ply and I wondered about this, say compared to galvanised steel.
Any advice welcome.
Thank you
