Anyone help out? I need to get the Cerbera from Hayling to APM at Liphook. Been quoted silly money so far.

Alternative is to stop and bleed clutch every few miles which will be a right royal PITA!

When do you need to do it? I have a trailer and the means of towing it, however both, (and me!), are in France until around 4/5 of October.

Pretty open really. Need to buy a clutch slave cylinder from Raceproved and then book the car in with APM, really can't see that little lot happening before the first week of October.

Very generous of you, will drop you a PM.

Cant see PM's until I get home bud. However I'll take a butcher's and reply when I can. Trailer has 2 tonne capacity and 6'1" bed width so should be ok for a Cerb

Should hope so biggrin

Needs a winch though as the reason for needing a trailer is the clutch being a b'stard.

May be able to help Mark if your other offer falls down, you can use the van to tow it.

Just bought a Defender 90 TD5, will be in Havant everyday next week, could do it one evening if you can get a trailer?

Do Hayling Trailers do hire?

Can't do Thursday.

Not quite a Cerbera Ben!!

Top offer though, thanks mate. As I said not got the parts yet, just proactive in getting transportation lined up.

Not quite sure what happened!

The old bimmer suffered a breakdown, need something reliable, have stack of work to do on the boat this winter, need to be humping about all sorts of tools, trestles, work benches and god knows what, a TD5 does high 30's MPG so I bought one!
