Anyone any experience or recommendations?
We are two cars wanting covered transport from Leeds to Geneva. We would like to fly out and collect our cars for a ten day drive in the Alps then send the cars home on a transporter. Anyone done this/cost?
We thought by the time we have depreciation on cars and fuel we may as well truck them out.
Thanks

If you find out please let us know because I`ve thought about doing it loads of times!

I did Calais to the Alps 6 times last year and I`ve never enjoyed it let alone 6 times in one year!

I`ve even thought of keeping a car in Geneva or Chamonix

Thanks Scott just called Ben now. Nice and helpful and think its not a bad price/idea. Price so far is £950 per car travelling together.

Hi Don,
See my earlier note price from Leeds to Geneva is so far £950 incl Swiss tax of circa 40Euros.

Aaaah ok great, that`s one way? (have to ask)

I might look into leaving a car in Chamonix for a few months over summer again, it`s only 45 mins from Geneva and there are loads of transfer companies that are cheap and easy!
