scooters Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 Anyway - stop being such a big girls blouse! us Sweaties pretty much ALWAYS face a journey like this to collect our chod - especially when heading to the goldmines of Cornwall, Sarfend and Lincs!!!
autofive Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 sometimes the roadtrip to collect is more important than the car collected
25v6turbo Posted September 5, 2011 Author Posted September 5, 2011 The postcode is KY11 4HY,hes a very helpful chap and really wants me to have the car,but he knows the distance is a problem.I think getting it MOTED etc would mean the price etc would go up,and the seller won,t sell,but i think its movable under its own steam.
R9UKE Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 AGH that's RIGHT beside where my uncle lived in Burntisland up until two weeks ago! Super bad timing, he's in Germany now
Cavcraft Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 How about a relay event? We have got shiters the length and breadth of the country, and for those that are having shite withdrawal symptoms, it would be a welcome break away from trawling the 'bay. Each shiter picks an MOT station about 50 miles away, and books an MOT. Next shiter picks car up from MOT station, bodges one of the items on the VT30, polishes a panel then does the same again. By the time it gets to Surrey, it'll have a years ticket and be mint. Bung each shiter a tenner and a pint for his trouble. Can we find a fecked Solara in Surrey to do the return trip? Bollocks to your banger rally's... We are providing a service, having a laff and recycling and saving the planet- might even get a lottery grant!
254575 Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 Hey 24v6 I can't help on the towing front, but I'm always up for a shite road trip if you want a lift. I know you are quite near to me! My diesel maestro has a tow bar that I'm itching to try out too
Guest Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 Ok, So I've bought a new addition to the fleet off ebay. It has no tax or mot but I plan to book it in for an mot and drive it home. Bristol to Oakham. I guess if I get pulled over and it gets crushed it will be a lesson for us all. At least I will have put the theory to the test I suppose. Wish me luck
CortinaDave Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 I can almost guarantee you whitevanman would do this very cheaply seeing as its shite - send him a PM. He's not been on here much lately so if he doesnt get back to you pm me and I'll send you his moby number. Whitevanman is a god of shite. He's your man on this.

The Moog Posted September 11, 2011 Posted September 11, 2011 I am likely to be taking a car to Edinburgh for Scooters towards end of October and will need to get back to Ashford (middx) so if it was legal I could drive it back. If that is any help at all?
