I'm aware of that but pointing it out as it's the first time I have ever had a quote with that on it.
This is in the terms and conditions from the company of the trailer I did buy.
Can a dealer change a deal?

The second sentence in 3:1 is clear, and easy to understand. They have made it clear to the buyer, what they are signing up for.
Personally, I would never sign a contract with those terms, unless they included the provision for the price to also be reduced.
It pays to read the small print

If you buy through a dealer remember they are in same boat as you... Manufacturer on the other hand... If price goes up due to materials etc they just pass the costs on...
I priced an IW trailer last year with two dealers, I was told in very clear terms by both dealers that the price is subject to change from IW and could not be set 100% until the day of delivery. I put the order in with a very well known dealer in north Devon. The phone call came to say the price was going up £1000, he was incredibly apologetic even though he had made it clear at the time of order, and was completely understanding when I cancelled it.
It’s not the dealer that’s the problem, it’s IW.

The main issue is demand is more than their supply

Every manufacturer seems to be doing the same at the minute.

Unfortunately how many would say that their costs had reduced
prob just say they bought their materials when ordered, when the prices were high...Generally just two options, continue with the sale or decline. Dealer wins either way, as it will sell in the current market.

I agree, on low price goods. However, the clause I highlight is common place in high value contracts.Unfortunately how many would say that their costs had reduced

I think they’re very short of welders there as well. Having seen the adverts of what they’re paying its no wonderThe main issue is demand is more than their supply

I'm probably over simplifying this.
If ifor are struggling to build trailers and that's their only income, could they ultimately run into financial trouble?

Cornish Tractor/Timberlake Trailer literally have a dozens of Graham Edwards trailers in stock ready for delivery.
Will deliver all over UK.
More like their margin has increased over and above material costs and their order books are full for nearly 3 years! Probably looks an attractive buy for a company looking to buy a manufacturing business.
