clayts450 Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 Would have been happy to oblige - anything small like that can be carried around in the van and dropped off whenever I'm in any area. LightBulbFun 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is Nottingham is just a bit too far for me to travel at the moment. Could somebody collect it for me and get it a bit further south for us?

It got to ride in Tommyboy's Montego down powered to 1275cc and sharley17194's AX as part of their Grand Tour Lands End to John o' Groats trip.

gm Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 I'm looking at a set of winter wheels on eBay down in Princes Risborough - what are the chances of anyone being able to get them nearer to the north east area (Durham / Newcastle) ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you needed them collected from the ebay seller then I could collect them from Princes Risborough and take them home the 25 miles north to Buckingham. I am a bit restricted as to how far I am comfortable driving at the moment. If somebody else did not want to get free tea and biscuits at Six cylinder towers then I could take them out to the M40, J10 services or M1, J15a services for there next move north.

Faker Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Do we still have a Pony Express thread or service? I need a pair of real taillights collected from the Sandleheath - Fordingbridge area. The seller won’t post unfortunately, so I’m wondering if any of our members could assist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checkout Paisley Freight online - not sure how they fiddle things but they'll 'ship' most tyres/wheels even though the actual job is usually by APC (other couriers also exist but like APC they will not carry tyres/wheels/car parts [usually]) I've used Paisley Freight to collect (bad idea if the seller is a total kn*b as each failed collection is £10 + stress) but maybe better to get the seller to book the collection and then you pay them. Four wheels + tyres = £40 but you need to adhere to their packaging guide (loads of cardboard/bubble wrap/tape) Last used them two weeks ago for 2 x quad tyres on rims, £19.99 - collected by APC, delivered to me by anon white van man (who was very nice btw) gm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gm Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 yep, I've used them a few times. these are just a bunch of scabby steelies with winter tyres so packaging is less critical but I've approached the seller and we shall see what he says.

Minimad5 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Anyone in or around West Calder ? I've seen 1 alloy wheel on eBay, but is collection only (a good 4+hrs away).

(Thanks!) He is near Buckingham, and can also do M40 J10 Cherwell Valley Services. Or M1 Roadchef J15a. If anyone could bring them part or all the way north that would be much appreciated. Happy to contribute to costs. Thanks If it helps, I live near @Six-cylinder and work in the Gosport/Southampton/Portsmouth area a couple of days most weeks. I have a C Class estate. If anyone needs anything that size moving up to the FoD, give me a honk. Six-cylinder and mitsisigma01 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flat4 Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Shitely offered - this coming Thursday, 30th Dec. Ayrshire to Manchester and back again same day. Can only take small items, what ever fits in a suitcase, on the way down but will have a car load of space on the way back up. Can deviate a little off the M6 on the way back but not by much as I'm on a deadline to start work too.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flat4 Posted Wednesday at 09:44 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 09:44 PM Shitely offered - going to Doncaster early doors on Sunday, from Ayrshire and back again in the evening. Will have an empty boot and back seats in the S-class, which can hold a fair whack of stuff! Can deviate about 30 mins off route. Probably using the A66-A1 rather than M6.
