After buying the new race car, I am unable to collect it due to going offshore on wednesday. Have been quoted ridiculous prices by most of the specialist companied online.

Does anyone know of anyone cheap and trustworthy, or does anyone on here with a decent trailer fancy picking it up from Oxford and delivering to Perth scotland.

Car is very low and pretty wide so needs to be a trailer to accommodate.

I've used this auction site a couple of times, mixed bag but the cars do generally get there! Companies compete for the business. http://www.shiply.com/

This other chap is good and trustworthy, I've used him 100s of times. Located in Kent so not the ideal location but worth asking prices, his name is Mike. Private guy with one truck, not VAT registered so makes it a bit cheaper. zodiaccartransit@aol.com

Mate of mine is also reasonable. Alex, Lizard Logistics. Mention my name for verbal abuse and possibly a discount.
