    A lil help required - Birmingham to Scotland

    Hi guys, just purchased a front coupe bumper for project Sooty2 off the bay. Its currently in Birmingham and to keep the cost of Sooty down i was wondering if there was anyone whos commute takes them Birmingham to Scotland that could stick it in the car for a few beers?

    Thanks folks

    (dam and i said i wasnt gonna touch the daily diesel! oh well slippery slope....)

              Yup, it works slightly different to a normal courier like DHL etc, I had a bike picked up from York and delivered to me in Kent for £47! Main courier wanted nearer £200!
