Fooking hell i just done autoroute and its 6 hours from me i never realised...

Think it would cost a tad too much

Rudey it would be cossie powered so i dunno really...

I seem to have narrowed my mind down to a s1, mk1 or a dax rush...

But ya know me im bound to change my mind yet

Well it says dave that most of work has been done welding wise, but it would be my look to pull a trailer up there only to come away without it

Dunno what to do really....

I got the odd grey hair now rude

it will be a long way to go and look at it then have to go home and then pick it up.

Need to get plenty of pics of it everywhere just to make sure its to your liking before you go anywhere.

hope its ok for you Lee.

Lee, if you know where Swillington is theres a trailer hire firm there, they are pretty decent. And i don't think they cost the earth either.

Do you know Ben Rodbourne who works for Saul's ?

well was just thinking. van hire is about 40 a day, as is trailer hire, then what Ł60-70 fuel? so u could cover the costs for sum1 in scotland , 2 bring it down, you could have it done in 24 hours easy. if you picked it up sharpish in the morning. i have a week off start of jan so could find out costs if you wanted

I picked a shell up from Soctland a couple of years ago. I left at 12 midnight, got to Kircaldy in just over eight hours, loaded up the trailer and got back home for 6:00PM, a round trip of 950 miles from Essex.

Well, if you did go mate id be really chuffed. I dont really wana ask you or anyone tho as i feel a cheeky fooker I hate putting people out. If you did go the areas repaired already and things like chassis legs id need info on...but basically its a stripped project so not expecting it to be good, but dont want something ill have to weigh in once i got it home
