Car Transportation From N.Wales to Southampton

Hey guys,

I've lined myself up with a new project, the only real obstacle is that it's currently in N.Wales and I live in Southampton.

Can anyone recommend a decent vehicle transport company?
I am also looking into trailering it down myself, I have a mate with a 4x4 and can hire a trailer but it's a big favour to ask, it's not just round the corner

Cheers
D

I've just had a quick search through my e-mails but can't be 100% sure who I used.

I **think** it was this guy though: www.flyingbluedog.co.uk

The car is currently in Prestatyn. I've had a couple of quotes, one from a guy down this way (SB Recovery - Romsey) which came in at £470 and one from a guy up there (Zoom Transport - Chester) who quoted £285 all in and was very helpful.

I'll check out shiply.com and flyingbluedog.co.uk and see what they say, thanks for your help all.

iceman26 - You have U2U - thanks

No, not really. Theoretically no reason it won't, but it's been sat idle for quite a while so I plan to give it a full service before firing it up.

Did you get it there in the end? I'm just asking cos I've found a car on fleabay that's in Newport and I'm wondering how much it'll cost to get it up to me, either through a proper transporter or hiring a car/van and trailer
