Do you want covered transport or uncovered?
MSS are good...

Viable Logistics in Bordon, Hampshire. Had my car stored with them for a while, but they do transportation and all sorts of other stuff. Couldn't recommend enough as they did a great job looking after my 997 whilst it was in their care.

I understand that Mel is very good and highly respected. I have also recently used Circuit 2 Circuit to move a number of valuable historic race cars. They have a range of covered transporters. I found them to be excellent. They are based near Silverstone/Northampton.

Melv is off on his long hols v soon, the phone number that he puts on his voice mail for transport enquiries & one of the very few chaps he will trust to look after his good customers in his absence is me- lizardlogistics.com as mentioned above.

If Melv or Iguana can't do it, try Steve Smith (Car-couriers-uk) on 07836 665568. He's based in Cheshire.

Bentley's in Cheshire can do it. They do work for McLaren Manchester, Bentley Manchester (both actually in Knutsford) and similar outfits, as well as moving for classic auction houses (to sales in the UK and abroad). 01565 872400, tell them I sent you by all means.

http://www.bentleysautomotive.com/ although they've never done much with their website as they always have enough work.

Bit late in the day for your move now, but Ontime Autumotive are the biggest in the field, by a long way - they handle everything from Aston Martin 177 through to the most expensive historics and classics. They'll go everywhere in Europe too, plus airfreights and containers. www.ontime-auto.com
