Cheers Quzzy.
I was intending on spending £5k ish, well none at all if I can stop all this horse riding nonsense.
Then its a horse-box, then its a bike trailer. Or maybe just a bike trailer.  |

Niall MacKenzie did alright using a Horse Box as a Bike Trailer. But something tells me it wouldn't work the other way around. |

I've got a bike trailer as well wasn't going to sell it but you would have a problem getting the horse to stay on  |

I'd definitely avoid encouraging the horse riding, it costs an absolute fortune. Mrs Molie must spend in the region of £200 per week on keeping hers, plus a decent horse costs as much as a new sportsbike.
We looked into getting a proper horsebox a while ago, figured it would probably hold its value pretty well if bought second-hand. Would easily take a couple of bikes as well, but you'd be stinking of horseshit on your track day. Nice  |

It'd make a change from him smelling of wee.  |

Ex MOD Landies. (civilian models and military hard as nails models.. the civi ones tend to be good as the lads who sign for 'white fleet' wagons will and do get in the shit if they get bent or scratched, hence they tend to be in really good nick) Sometimes get some decent military variant ones on there too.
Some of the Bikes are good too, when they come up for sale, especially the Hondas.. |

Landrovers are great if you want a "repair anywhere with a hammer and two spanners" vehicle. - Ideal for Africa, or the MoD. They are pretty damn good off road obviously. I think some other 4x4s are as good off road at least. Almost any other 4x4 is a better "car" IMHO.
But then you did say you wanted a 110 Landrover. |
