Default Car transport companies any experiences ?

I'm looking to move a non MOT'd rally car from Lancaster to North London. There seems to be lots of compnaies offering to do this and that but due to the scarcity of what I'm hoping to buy I need someone I can trust.

Has anyone used any compnaies that they have found especially good ?

Don't want to pay over the odds but don't mind spending a little more for some peace of mind.

Anyone on here got a trailer and tow car and fancy making some money maybe ?

Its the ex works Daihatsu Charade GTti as driven by Terry Kaby in the 1989 Lombard rally. Full MSA certification, homologation papers and loads of history.

Hoping to restore it and use it as my track car.

I've just used js.transport@ntlworld.com based near Newark to move my new car from Southampton to Nottingham.

Very reasonable rates.

Cheers Chris
