having deciding to get more into vehicle collections,delivery's,recovery work i have bought a newer truck.am also looking to buy a tilt/slide bed truck too,and maybe a van for collecting bikes etc.....car sales alone is just a bit slow for my liking at the mo!

im looking to offer collections of cars people have bought on net(ebay etc),and are either untaxed or they dont have time/trust it to get them home(cosworths!).also taking cars to shows/trackdays,or picking broken ones up!basically anything that needs moving.

based in warrington,northwest.anyone need anything doing-pm me for a price.

Nice idea. I am thinking about the same thing. But then with a little trialer

 

but then you would need a tacho and an operators licence!

 

handy to know, ive lost count of the things i would have bought on ebay if i could of had them picked up and delivered,would you deliver to the glasgow area?

 

Neh mate i mean this

 

i would collect and deliver anywhere in uk.

 

in the uk you would need a tacho if used for buisness,

 

you do???? tsss. here you don't

 

Nice one Jay....

Are you gonna have it stickered up or you leave it blank? I need to sort out with Robbo when i can book my car in so i will require your assistance please.

 

Thats very handy to know jay & i think its a good move dont know how many ppl i have heard saying i would love this car on ebay but how would i get it home

 

I can vouch for your serice Jay, so would happily recomend you and use your services again

 

Are you sure tachos and o licence not needed now? I am sure the exception for recovery vehicles to be tacho excmpt has been removed. As you are going to be using it for hire/reward you may well come under the scope. Worth checking with vosa mate rather than getting in the shit

 

if you only use it for private use wont need a o licence just dont give receipts for any recovery work but might still need tacho calibrating i am just about to become a tacho tester going on the analogue/digital tachograph testers course in april

 

i just borrowed my mates trailer to pick my 3dr up with, got it home now and ready to go to pro alloy in the morning

what a complete CUNT it is to reverse the fuckers

 

thats what im hoping for...........

someone in scotland buys car on ebay from london.....say 220 miles away.if i can collect it for,say Ł220-250ish it may be worth doing,rather than drive it home and get stopped with no road rax/insurance,or it break down on way home....

and they dont have to take time off work,ruin their weekends,wait for trains,rely on a lift, etc etc.

im sure if i can advertise it right then i should get enough work to make it pay-then buy a newer/better truck...........hopefully.

i used to work for a firm who was contracted to aa and rac and loved the recovery/breakdown work......but very very unsociable hours!

 

Jay i used to sell some cars on ebay before i got fed up and now i only use autotrader.

Loads of people wanted them delivered but i didnt trust my van not to chuck it half way to london from up here!!! Ł1 a mile seems to be going rate.

 

I can recommend Jay too

Spot on service,turned up as promised on time and good price

 

Had a ford a series done some work with it try people at salvage auctions can be fast cash in hand ..good luck....

 

This could be exactly what I'm after - have PM'd you.
