Matt with your DIY skills build your own from a cravan chassis, that's what I did, Athought I don't use  mine very often now its hard to get hold of a good one cheap, you may hit lucky on flebay.

With the size your after you can get a 250ltr tank in it with room for your hose reel and a few more bits.

thanks both

ian, i checked ebay, 6 X 4 seem to be around 400 - 500 quid new, i dont mind paying that to be honest, but would prefere less

jeff, i have looked at the caravan idea, but decided against it, i am feeling lazy at the mo, come the summer that might change ;)

Fair enough Matt. if you do go that route then try to get a very old caravan the type with coil springs and shocks, this type can carry more weight and is more stable with a load on it when Towing.
