Are dealers in the mainland willing to deliver cars to N.Ireland?
I'm too lazy to drive it back on the ferry.

Any companies in N.I who provide this type of service for a single car, what would it cost if available?

Thanks

Why not make a weekend of it?

That's exactly what the wife and I did when we picked up the Jag. Flew over to Manchester, picked up the car, stayed in the Lake District overnight, then took the HSS back from Stranraer.

The whole trip only cost about £250 including petrol!

Wouldnt the mainland be mainland Europe? Since when did England, Scotland and Wales become the mainland?

Clearly you are a bit retarded when it comes to geography. In fact, maybe a total retard.

I think you will find that it is the retards in the North of Ireland who believe themselves to be british that refer to the UK as the mainland. I think you`ll find that the UK is just off mainland Europe. Try refering to an atlas before making such stupid statements. Such delusions of grandeur disappeared with the Empire.

Unless one lives on Rathlin Island references to the mainland are misleading however I do not consider myself a retard to consider myself British and the Taxman seems to agree.

If you dont like our country, why dont you f uck off down south. You are clearly blind, an idiot, and you failed at geography.

What has the North of Ireland got to do with anything ? What is that, Donegal ? It would be the most northerly area of Ireland.

You can shove your political bullsh*t view. I spent the weekend driving from across England and Scotland (to the ferry) collecting a car and it all looks the same - same money, same road signs, same papers, same TV, same language, just the SAME. So only a politically shallow retard would consider them different.

So you got the boat from Britain to Ireland across the Irish Sea, yet you think you were in Britain the whole time? You couldnt make it up.
Exactly where is this mainland you talk of? Mainland Europe I can understand, but mainland Britain ??? ffs get a life.

The more i read this post the more it pees me off -

what a bigotted/secterian statement, appears not the be the first either.

lets get one thing straight, regardless of religion The North of Ireland as you put it is in fact part of Great Britian, not the occupied 6 countries as you refer to it as in pervious messages.

Its just a shame in this day and age some people are still hung up on being sectarian minded.

Guys,

Just a polite notice to remind everyone that sectarianism has no place on PH nono

As per the PH posting rules, any transgression can lead to a banning - taking particular note about spoiling it for everyone else.

Being pedantic is one thing, but being biggoted is quite another.

I'm not willing to argue this point - suffice to say that we just drop the politics on either side, and lets focus on what we all have in common, and what brings us all here to start with - our cars.

If anyone disagrees, then perhaps PH is not the place for you.

I hope the point has been made, as this will be the one and only warning.

K
