Which livestock trailer

[Dman2]

Looking to upgrade our cattle trailer
Currently have a 10ft Rice Richardson, had it from new in 2002
Looking to go a bit bigger 12ft maybe
Which is best both for towing and price and reliability
Cheers

Will only be used for cattle, and the odd bit of furniture etc

Well I’ll kick off with ifor Williams
Now I’ll just leave whilst all the haters try to murder me

Ifor's are a rattle box, sorry @Northeastfarmer. I had to poke a bit of fun at ya .
I have a 14ft Nugent trailer myself and I have to say it's been a seriously good trailer. I'd be very hard pressed to change to another manufacturer. Porter are supposed to be a very good trailer as well but heavy I'm told.

Everyone laughed back in 02 when I bought the rice richardson
But would have another tomorrow given the option

Might be tempted with a good second hand one
Don`t intend to be hauling livestock for that many years
How do you decifer a Ifor williams serial number? to get age

Unless your 90 and easily confused by the simple ramp like some people on this forum
