Buy or hire the Hippomobile if...

  • you want one that is 375kg lighter empty

A two-horse trailer with a front platform sized to carry a horse-drawn carriage, aimed at driving competitors rather than everyday riders. It lets one outfit move both horses and the carriage they pull in a single tow, which is why it turns up with carriage-driving yards rather than general livery use.

Buy or hire the HB510XL if...

  • you want one that is rated 900kg heavier gross

For owners of taller or longer horses who find the standard HB511 too tight, giving extra internal length on the same 3500kg chassis so it stays towable by a suitably rated 4x4.
