Hi guys,

after a massive favour from someone, i'm looking to collect a car on the weekend which is miles away, thing is all the trailer hire people don't seem to have any trailers!

I'd be more than happy to 'privately hire' from someone on here if anyone has one that they'd be happy for me to use?

Any help is much much appreciated!

regards
andy

Not got a trailer mate but have you tried universal trailers in billingshurst? A bit further but jenkins hire in littlehampton a long way to go but if your desperate.

yeah been phoning round quite a few and nothing!
absolutely typical the one day i need one!

I'm nice and I have a trailer................
But I live miles away!


pekwah1 - 6/8/10 at 07:26 PM

Feel free to drive it down here though if you want to prove how nice you are...!

once again, this car is not running, has not had an SVA/IVA and has never been registered on the road.

i'm very up for nice long drives and i'd love to drive it back, but mr plod wouldn't be very happy with me

Steve, dont think it's driveable, going to have a shifty at it tomorrow for Andy.

You got your pc sorted then?

Take care

yeh cheers rich, looking forward to the call!


RichardK - 6/8/10 at 08:44 PM

Andy, not sure how much these would charge, based about 20 miles from Harrogate. Link y

This one would be about £300 ish

Mmm, £80 for trailer hire for a day and fuel would cost about £80 to go both ways so £300 maybe isn't that bad when you consider you won't have 10 hours of driving to do!!!

Cheers

yeh was thinking about a transport service, dont really mind doing the drive and i don't think the fuel should cost too much with mhy diesel barge.... being on hols next week helps too


RichardK - 6/8/10 at 08:57 PM

Yeh could maybe do it a bit cheaper in fuel it 263 miles from my house to Crawley and I can just get there and back on £50 in my octavia deisel, towing a trailor both ways I know I would have to fill up with a little. So would be close to the £80 I reckon.

I reckon you'll just have to work on your negotiation skills with the seller and transporter and you wouldn't be too far off in my opinion.

Speak soon!

what about hiring a transporter rather than a trailer? might be a little dearer, but more readily available.
