Transport for Cars.

Does anyone know of a good Car transporter who picks up and delivers cars from south wales to bristol,
I've found a cracking doner car for my project but it ran out of tax yesterday but still has MOT. And i'm not going to risk driving it on no tax,

Thanks.

why not tax it for 6 months and then cash it in once you get home (or drive it for a few days to figure out what needs sorting). Will only cost you the £25 or so lost on the month's tax, plus any insurance cost of course.

Got to be a lot cheaper than the alternative of paying for a transporter

Indeed, a LOT cheaper, and driving it around first to find out what is and isn't ok is a very good idea.

I used These when I had a Jag picked up from southern england, They bid against each other for your buisiness, Much cheapness.

I found a very good guy a couple of years ago on ebay. He operates from near the M5/M4 junction in bristol and does a lot of race cars etc. Very professional and very good rates.

This is the guy: http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/managerboy6
