Ifor Williams DP120 value

[Celt83]

We are thinking of changing the trailer to a triple axle 12/14ft one.

Anyone want to hazard a guess at the trade in value of our current one? We bought her new in 2001 but I don't know how to work out the exact date from the plate, and we refurbished the brakes last year.

TIA.

More than you paid for it

Love the sound of that especially after I priced a triple 14ft last year!,

I would say that if you take the discounted price of a new one of the same spec and knock off 20%, you will be very near the private sale price. These boxes make outstanding money.
I had all six brakes done on mine last week, plus two tyres replaced. Do it in time and it isn't too bad a cost. The one before had chunks missing from two brake drums and needed cables and a drawbar damper and I think I paid about £500 more than the estimate for the brake job to change it for a new one with the brakes as they were and made known to the salesman.

Yours is worth 2k
Maybe 1500 to trade

Remember that a triple will have less payload and more expensive maintenance and tyre replacement costs than a twin. However I would go for a 14ft, as there is room to shut the partition and accommodate a cow or two either side than a 12 footer. They only do the 14ft as a triple nowadays if I remember correctly .

Looks like you have been kind to it

It would probably cost £500 to service the old one properly, so that's not so bad.

Very tidy that, id value it at £2.5k private sale given a new standard DP one will be circa just north of £4k after discount.

Not sure on trade in, but I think IWT pay decent trade in, or they certainly did on dads

IWT certainly hold their values

I've been watching the prices of them for a few months as have been thinking about changing mine
A 120 with decks will seems to be 2250
A 120 without 2000
I did enquire about 12 months ago and the trade value on mine was 1500

She's carted a lot of cattle in her time but has been washed everytime after use no matter what we were home.

Cost us £380+vat to do the brakes, cables and a new hitch damper.

i recently sold a DP 10 footer with wooden decks for £1500, OP’s is 10 years younger.

Has to be worth £2.5k private??

I was hoping for that much as a new 14ft was £5.5k.

The whole thing for 2,250 , never .

OP was quoted 5.5 k

I think a standard twin 12ft DP without decks should be iro £4-4.5 after discount going by the price list, that is of course if the one I have is current

Go back and read the posts
He asked the trade in on his second hand

A mate of mine was quoted that for his last year when he changed his. It was a 10ft but he decided to keep it and the new one. The firm that quoted you would it start with a "R"?
