Urgent help needed...Tow truck required

[Penny-lope]

I know it's a long shot but I'm rather desperate...

So after buying a second hand car just over a month ago, the darling heap of junk metal broke down over the weekend in Kinross. Thankfully I managed to get a local garage to pick it up and have a look at it, only to be told a few days later that it was basically fecked (blown gasket head...quote £300-1K repair) And to make matters worse, this was not the first time it had blown.

Now the cost of the repair, compared to the original cost of the car makes it unrealistic to repair sadly.

However after a rather heated conversation with the seller, it has been agreed that if I can get the car back to him, he will refund my money in full

The only problem is my car is in Kinross (KY13) , and I need to get it to Laurencekirk (AB30) by Thursday at the latest. Therefore can anyone recommend a 'cheap' tow truck company? Or even better, does anyone have a tow truck and could help a fellow Ph'er out? :bigpuppyeyes:

Thanks

Do you know anyone with a tow bar? Halfords do towing bars http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/... fire that on and get towed to location perhaps?

That was the plan, but the person who was going to do it has chickened out
