Hi all

After a break to ruin myself in an SLK55, I’m back in a Zed having found a lovely one on the forum.
Only problem is it’s in Scotland, and I’m not…..
Can anyone recommend a transport company who could collect and deliver the car? Best quote from Shiply so far is £340 - seems a little high, but could just be the going rate is a lot higher in this seemingly never ending rise in cost of living!!
Thanks in advance and will post pics when car is delivered!
 
I used a couple of guys via shiply who gave me their direct contact details to go direct

Can send via pm if interested
 
I have used a small car delivery company recently who were extremely good and very reasonable. They are local to me, South Lincs, but not too far from Stoke.
I don't think he would beat a Shipley quote, but he is reliable, reasonable, a really nice honest bloke and goes that extra; ie he spent 15 minutes assessing the car for me when he picked it up as I hadn't physically seen it.

I paid him £350 to collect a car from Exeter and deliver it to me in Spalding as an example. This was in May so fuel was at current prices.

If you are interested PM me and I will give you his details as don't want to put details on a public site. :thumbsup:
 
Another thumbs up for Shiply - I've had a few dealings with them, including getting the number of one chap and using him separately a few times. Suspect there's no point in me sharing his details as he's based local to me in Guildford, but shout if you're really stuck!
 
Hi
I recently had a car delivered from Scotland by Falkirk Car Carriers.
Good service and very helpful

Thanks all for your help and quick replies.
Have got a guy going up to get it for me on Sunday - will report back if it was a success, on cost and contact info in case anyone else needs anything moving. Gonna be a long couple of days wait..... :tumbleweed:
 
Hi All. Update, car delivered on time, in professional manner by a cracking bloke called Steve. Cost, from Scotland to Staffordshire, was a very reasonable £250.
Guy was friendly, had lots of tales from his F1 days, and the communication was great.
For anyone interested, booked via this website https://movecarsforyou.com/

Thanks again for recs all - it's nice to be back! :thumbsup:
