I'm local to Lincoln and have access to trailers and lorries for transport but with fuel costs I think the quote you have already is quite good.
What I can offer is a place to store it for a while if the seller needs it out the way and you can't get it picked up soon enough.
Not a lot of help I know, but it may help!!!

Thank you for your kind offer db950!

Do you ever have loads going to south west direction? that it could perhaps be put on like a backload?


But shiply has come out with good quotes so may take you up on the offer of storage if the seller needs it gone quick.

I will keep everyone informed of progress!

Scamp on here who is another local to Lincoln is kindly giving up some of his time to go view it for me and make sure papers are in order and its all in good working order and wheels aren't hanging off!

Seller has texted me asking for £300 deposit by PP so have sent him a request for £300 total on ebay so I can pay him via PP/Ebay as I can't seem to pay him other than the full amount which I don't want to do so as yet!

He says his wife is in labour at the moment so he's busy with the wife haha. 2008 Santorini Black 110 XS USW (Sold)

No problem, glad to help if I can.
Sorry I should of been clearer, not hauliers I'm afraid just have trailers and a couple of 7.5 tonne beaver tail lorries for transporting vintage tractors about!

Have fun with your new purchase
Will keep an eye on the thread to see how you get on.

£140!!.... How mich is fuel there now? I could do that journey for about 100 Euro (Approx £75-80).

Not sure if I like the idea to head back to the UK next summer.

Glyn thats takes into account towing a loaded double axle trailer with 33" tyres on the 110, a huge roof rack and my missus's driving which isn't exactly economical seeing as she likes to cruise at 80 on private land so i can see my diesel being swallowed up unless i force her to drive at 55mph which is no easy task normally for a feisty jamacian lass that likes to use the road presence of the 110! 2008 Santorini Black 110 XS USW (Sold)

Being Shipley this will probably (almost certainly in fact) be done "as and when" they have a vehicle in the area. If they are passing by empty, what they are charging you will basically be 100% profit, as otherwise they would have been running empty. To do jobs just from shipley I found you would have to run at a loss, problem is, everyone expects the work to be done at shipley proces then, so you just can't complete.

Had some pics sent to me from the seller of areas I wanted to look at. obviously taken off a Censored phone!

Looks pretty good, rear winch looks like a T-max.
Bulkhead looks solid and paint work seems of a reasonable standard

Salisbury rear axle and QT diff guards. can't tell what the suspension is though
brake discs look nice and thick.
