Classic car transportation central / South England

[seanmaccann]

Hi,

Could anyone recommend a careful transportation company who deals with classic cars? I'm having some engine work done and I need the car (minus engine) transported about 100 miles from near Oxford to near Stansted for storage while the engine work is carried out.

Thanks

I would definitely recomend Matt at Elite Auto Storage, they are based near Stanstead and he looks after my car dueing the winter. He alos does a lot of transportation work for the various auction houses, number is 07703 295282.

Whilst not a specific recommendation, I've used www.shiply.com in the past to get a range of quotes. It saved me about £50 on the best quote that I got by phoning around, and as I wasn't in a hurry, and kept seeking quotes for a few days, I got further reductions until they all settled at the same sort of price. I then selected the one that I wanted to use on perceived quality by looking at their websites and the feedback that had been left about them.

I hope that this helps.

Also worth speaking to Andrew at Advent Motorsport - www.adventmotorsport.co.uk - I have used them numerous times to transport the Healey by either covered trailer or flat access truck.

They are based relatively close to Stansted so should be ideal

I can recommend Moto-move, www.motomove.co.uk he rescued a Car localy for me and provided an excelent service at minimal cost. We got to talk about classics 9as you do!) and it turns out most of his work was moving high end classics around for a southern dealer.
Nice bloke.

They bought my car back from Italy - excellent service. Based in Swindon.
