Nick 0 Posted June 21, 2006 Finally, after over a very stressful hour on the phone ive found a courier service that will transport from Scotland to Somerset at a very good price. Interlink - 01786479952 is the number i phoned, but answered as palletline. £42 + Vat for economy delivery, 2-3 days. £52 + Vat for next day delivery. *edit - g60greeny, Ive bought the main parts of AndyCowUK's engine - I dont need clutch/box etc so ive got it a very good price. * Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
