The forth trailer - the one and only!

It's a kind of magic how life unrolls.
We didn't know where more to search. Until my parents told me to search in google with specif words: atrelado de camião usado. As easy as this!
With these words we found a lot of trailers, but so expensive! Either because they were almost new or because they had all the legal papers to be on the road.
But then, we found one that "caught our eyes", but it didn't have the price on the website. So we called the owner.
And again, the price was more than we were expecting and more than the first one that we found! Did we loose the best trailer?
The owner asked us why we wanted to buy the trailer and we explained that we wanted to build a house on top of it. And then he said the magic words: "oh, I have something better for you! A trailer in the same conditions as this one, but with no papers. You don't need it to be legal because you are not going to have it on the road. And it is half of the price!".
We asked all the questions: was it rusty, size, how old it was. Everything.
And both our intuitions were saying the same thing: YES! Even though we haven't seen it yet.
Two days after, me and David traveled to Torres Novas, Empresa Manuel Ferreira Bento Unip lda, sure that we have found our trailer.
When we got there, we found a huge field full of trailers, trucks and buses. And when we started to follow Sr. Manuel, we thought that he was going to show us this very old trailer and we thought: oh no! We traveled 2 hours to see this old thing! But, again, we just had to trust our intuition and it had said before that we would find our trailer here.
And we did!
It was perfect:
