My mrs has just bought a new Horse in Newmarket and she needs to collect it on Tuesday and get it back to Southampton. We have a 7.5 Ton horsebox Iveco Eurocargo that she drives but she needs someone to share the driving with her who is used to driving 7.5 Ton stuff.

 

Happy to pay say £100 to come along and split the driving, its about 150 miles each way so probably take 5-6 hrs to do. I have to work :cursing: anyhows long shot but thought I would just ask as there might be an out of work driver around.

hi mate

 

give me til tomorrow to let you know as i'm off til thursday and i'm a class2 driver ie:i drive an 18 ton lorry for a living.

 

If nothing planned i should be able to help you out.

M8 thats cool thing is your in east sussex bud so would probably cost you near that in petrol to get over here. Would be happy to pay more to cover your fuel etc to get here. She has fully comp insurance for anyone to drive over 21 years old.

 

We tried getting someone in newmarket to deliver it but its the newmarket horse shows for two weeks so they are fully booked up.

 

Its from SO323NW to CB89DG The horse is being vetted on Monday morning so provided it passes would be Tuesday. Can leave at a time to suit.

what a forum, where else could you make an offer like this and get a responce

 

hats off to the both of ya's

If i can swap my day off with someone I will be happy to help..will ring round tomorrow

Yeah great forum, its a long shot but worth asking lol. Shes a good driver but its just to far for her to go on her own with a Horse on the back. Here are a few piccies of her lorry, we had it built last year. It has a full size cooker, fridge, flat screen TV DVD, sink,microwave, Toilet, double bed, shower, reversing camera, and loads of other cool bits.

bloody hell how does the horse sit round the table. looks a little tight (JOKE)

 

nice looking motor and very well looked after horses by the looks of it.

Yeah honestly you could live in the thing if you ever got stuck! its very nice. I bought it for her because of all the money I spent on the zed. like I say its 99% on for Tuesday vet just needs to confirm the horse is sound monday am just to confirm im not throwing a load of cash away on a half dead beast.

 

Thanks guys if anyone can make it please let me know, she is not bad company either.. the Horse that is not the wife lol.
