We have had a right game trying to get parcels accepted by carriers and finally found a firm that seems interested but at a price!
Full body set and a pair of seats posted to Scotland was a staggering £165.00...:(.

i just had a look and rough price of van hire is about £80 for two days hire and then when you add the cost of the fuel for the 1065 mile round trip that price doesnt look to bad now does it

No it doesn't but the cost went from £120 to £160odd as they suddenly realised where Scotland was and how far from Penryn in Cornwall it is....hahahahaha

have you tried Tamar Couriers
it just a thought they took an ice making machine to Birmingham from Saltash for a mate of mine the other day for £27 probably heavier than your bits and a biggish box
worth a 10p phone call

Snag is I do have a van but said van's denzil motor isn't in the right place and a tad popped at that.
Not had the time to sort it out and breakers want daft money for a 1.9d T4 motor:(

Well I'll go to the foot of our stairs I do believe we found a carrier that understands what we do even likes the kinda stuff we do and keen to help...:D just need to sort prices for shipping over the wobbly blue thing and folk over the wobbly blue thing can have roadster bodywork at last.

Forgot to ask him what the rubber button was though...:rolleyes:

Cheers,
