Chapman horseboxes are always available to order see under new build section of this web site.
The one shown below sold in August 2015 has a couple of new features - a double and a single tack locker, a half partition with rubber skirt and an extra safety feature of a removable "tray" to bridge the tack lockers so no chance of a horse dangling a leg or two over the breast bar!
We listen to our customers and tweak the design to suit.
I also go the extra mile to source genuine, low mileage donor vehicles with service history.
These boxes are holding their value very well - one has just been sold by a customer, secondhand for more than the cost of a new build!
The Stock
I only have limited stock to offer at any one time, this is due to the scarcity of good boxes on the market generally at any one time. You will have seen that advert on television "we buy any car" and in Horse and Hound "we buy any horse", well I DON'T buy any horsebox! I look at construction and design as priorities and then of course at condition - we do" minor ops" to rectify mechanical faults, or design faults, and cosmetic refurbishments we are not interested in boxes that need major surgery!
I am always available (evenings, weekends, bank holidays as well as ordinary working hours) to give help and advice whether you are thinking of buying a horsebox from me or from someone else. Suitability and safety for the horses is always my primary concern so you don't have to buy from me if you just want advice.
29/08/2015 WANTED!
More horseboxes of the type I sell - Coach built Renault Masters/Vauxhall Movanos on a LWB.
Will also look at the Citroen/Peugeot/Fiat versions.Try me for a good price and stress free sale!
I am always interested in buying back or re selling for a customer after all I wouldn't have sold the box in the first place if I hadn't believed it was a good one!
Just recently a customer who bought a nice Marlborough Hunter from me some three years ago didn't tell me she had decided to sell - she actually took £1,000 less from a dealer than I would have given on a buy back price, so it's always worth asking.......
