Transporting a car

the streaker · 17th June 2010, 04:28 PM

Anyone got any ideas as to who might or indeed what the cost may be of shipping an entire car ( it wont drive there!!) from this part of the world to Norfolk?

And wheres hes in the cold light of day then..........

I have a lad in norfolk from a hyundai coupe owners forum says he would fit a new engine for me if he can have the current engine free gratis hence the question..

E Bay seems canny as well as asked for a couple of quotes..

And yes I will check it all out before I get an engine and the car delivered to Norfolk on the back of a truck............

To be fair mate although a lot have knocked it back I havent really pushed this for the last week or so..

A mate suggested trying to flog it as is and cut me losses so I looked at Hyundai coupe forums and a lad from Norfolks suggested this and reading his previous hes an enthusiast whose messed about with countless coupes and says he would do it on the basis I mentioned.

And if transporting it might only be a ton or so then it may be the way to go.............

i see your point but,you have to get it back,do you travel down and drive it back or get it transported back? plus the cost of engine..

Got to cost it out but if its going to be say £100 one way or even £200 both its worth it considering what I suspect anyone up here would want who might do the job in the first place..

And the lad I train with doesnt work so would happily drive me down to drive it back...........
