Empty horse box going to department 37

[NuBeginningsFrance]

Any one need a lift to department 37 I have space and its travelling empty and on my own !

So this is my first horse box purchase picked it up yesterday. I am setting of with it to France tomorrow fingers crossed it makes it :eek:

It came with a new MOT and the chap trew ( Irish Accent ) in 6 months tax and filled it up with fuel and checked the oil :) He owned and engineering firm so it seems to be looked after and it was his OH van. Seems in good nick new hard wood floor space for 4 horses sitting area ;-) Bit big for me and my lad but hey ho.

The chap I bought it from was a gem very helpful explaining every thing about it. I wish there were more people like him ! Just hope I have not bought a lemon lol

Fran, you dont say where you are leaving from or when?  We have things to go but logistically might be a problem.  You're not that far away in France - we border Dept 18 and 03 but are away v soon and live in Scotland.....  As for the wagon - it looks great.  I was never allowed one because of the plating being expensive here so had to make do with trailers. So long as the floors been replaced you should be fine!!  I am always more worried about the horses!  Join a breakdown service if you are worried about the long haul and cancel it when you get over or just leave it running - sometimes available as part of the insurance cover.....  The best horses I ever had came via Irish dealers - they dont always sell lemons and your chap sounds fairly legit.  I will keep my fingers crossed for your trip.
