Stanky Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Wanted: Shitely request to transport Alfamale's Fiat 500 engine from Sheffield to somewhere further south. I'm based in south Hampshire, between Southampton and Portsmouth, but if anyone from that area plans to come down to Six_cylinder's sept meetup, or to southwest London in the foreseeable future and could accommodate a dismantled engine in a large plastic crate I'd be extremely grateful, and would be happy to offer beer tokens or similar. Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also at home on leave next week so let me know if I can help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucketeer Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 I could divert towards Sheffield on my way back down south from Accrington on Monday and take it as far as Camberley, so just a squirt up the M3 away from you. I just need to check with my co-pilot.Roughly how big of a big plastic crate are we talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefag Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 I could get it from Camberley to SW London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be superb if you could - what sort of time do you anticipate being in Camberley on Monday? I am in Suffolk this weekend but could easily come back via the M3 rather than A3 on Monday late afternoon? I would hazard a guess at being there at about 4 or 5pm? Otherwise i could head up to Camberley from work one evening next week. crate looks like this (pic courtesy of Alfamale And is about 35kg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beko1987 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 I could get it from Camberley to SW London.I could accept it with a small diversion to Marlow, or if times stack up meet you just off the M4 at 8/9 Maidenhead then take it to CheZ_Six_Cylinder in September?

Sheefag Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Beko, whereabouts is CheZ_Six_Cylinder? I know it's Berks. somewhere. As an aside, I have a Miele vacuum cleaner that you could have at the same time if you wanted it. It's got controls on the hose handle and intermittently switches itself to standby. Mrs S has properly fallen out with it. It looks something like this.... With controls on the handle similar to this.... beko1987 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if we don't have an engine as well we should arrange to meet! Chez Six_Cylinder is in Buckingham, a fair way from Berkshire, near milton keynes and, er, buckingham!

PhillipM Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Bollocks, just went down from Shef to Bournemouth last weekend! I might be going again in a couple of weeks if you haven't sorted it by then - can pretty much do it in a single go then eddyramrod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chez Six_Cylinder is in Buckingham, a fair way from Berkshire, near milton keynes and, er, buckingham! PM me your number and we'll arrange a vacuum meet anyway then, but if we can tie it in with the engine then all the better.I've also got various old electronics to get rid of if they're your kind of thing, a couple of old Panasonic 42" Plasmas, Harman-Kardon AV amp, that kind of thing. Don't be afraid to say no if they're not your kind of thing though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beko1987 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Sounds good to me, PM Incoming! Do the plasma's work? Wouldn't say no to one if so, one of amys friends could do with a telly, but apart from that probably not. Had to ditch my surround sound setup when Eva came along sadly...
