Car is about 25 miles from Oxford and need to be taken literally to the bottom of the M11, about 70 miles. If you can find out how much it will cost to get back I'll get some money sorted for pick up on tuesday?

 

Hi mate, I'm 25 minutes from Oxford and can trailer it if your stuck, Where's the M11?
Andy

 

i just pm you about it m8 m11 is just of the m25 goes towards cambrigde m8

 

Yeah you follow the M40 to the M25 and its north east london, about 70 odd miles. about hour and a half from oxford.

Pm me me what you need or however much your after, will definately need a trailer as the engine was on its last legs, maybe sort a pick up for tuesday.

 

i go in and out of london a lot for work in the lorrys but i've been naughty and im off this week so im free and very bored

its quite straight folward to get to then

 

tuesday night, oxford to M11, Ł80, let us know, Andy

 

Good price that Andy

 

Stu - ring that guy tho 2morrow morn first thing

 

mine was around that but i would have to get a trailer

andy do you need a m8 to so you the way im cheap

 

well both of ya can bring it back if ya want I'm sure my mum will have the kettle boiled by the time you get here.

Ł80 flyin I'll see what I can do about money and tell ya guys tomorrow and make arangements

 

thats a fooking wiked price

though i must state the AA membership is still cheap

but andy thats a fooking sorted price

 

I aim to please , It's hard working out prices, but I seem to work it out like this, I recently picked up a car from Yorkshire, so I think petrol for the tranny=Ł70, wear and tear on the trailer(which cost Ł1600 in the first place)and transit=Ł30, and Ł10 an hour for myself, which came to 13 hours driving! So it was Ł230. Smaller trips are harder to work out and sometimes I feel guilty asking what I ask, but I've made loads of mates and contacts through doing it and it's something to do on my days off from the fire brigade.The trailer has nearly paid for itself but it's part owned by a mate aswell now (who keeps it as his farm)and he's well into his rallying and uses it alot so I sometimes can't do it at a drop of the hat like I used to.
Andy

 

Wicked price that!

 

andy, just out of interest, how much would you charge to pick up a car from aberdeen scotland??

i guess if you do yorks for Ł230 its gonna be like Ł500

 

hope ya get it sorted asap stu

did skye leave mine & his bags in your car? cos i'll get him to pick them up sometime if thats ok...?

 

Aberdeen to Bath, I do love a good road trip , I reckon it can be done in 24 hours,yer, I'm afraid Ł500, it should be more, but I like scotland so I'll enjoy it!

 

hmmm, cheers mate.

i still need to sell my car first tho

 

Yeah you did leave em in there and asfar as I know... they still are!

Seeing if I can't get the money sorted and I'll send you my cousins telephone number over and she can give you the keys and show you where the car is. I'll send some maps to my place over this evening if you PM your msn or e-mail addy.

Cheeres matey, much appreciated. I'll be glad to get it back.
