Car Transportation anyone used one Prices etc

banter general discussions etc

Hi guys,

As above i'm looking to maybe get a car transported from Wales to Glasgow to save me a 900 mile round trip with a trailer. I have submitted my details for a couple of quotes but not had a reply yet. Just wondering if anyone has used one before and what the costs were for it.

It's looking like I might get a trailer and drive but if wasn't to expensive I would just do this

Cheers Chris

Goes like this......

A 'suitable' time before buying/collecting car join a Motoring Rescue Organisation.
Catch coach to car.
Drive car down the road a bit.
Break down.
Get towed home.

I, of course would never do this, nor would I suggest it. You never saw that above .... right?
This posting may have been helpfull, on the other hand probably not... Either way, I may have had drink when posting it in which case it's probably not as helpfull as it could have been

Work safe, and remember all technical problems can be resolved with a hammer, the trick is knowing where to hit it and how big a hammer to use (I often find it may also help to have a spare bit in the shed to replace the bit you have just mullered ;) )

Work in Progress (or not as the case may be) I give you.... 'O-no' the truck.

Comments on 'O-no' the truck may be left here
