Can you recommend a good trailering company for a Lambo?

[25th Anniversary]

Hi there

I need to find a very professional and reasonable trailering company to bring my Lambo back from Oxfordshire to London. Can you recommend any company that you have used, have impressed you, and have got very good experience with moving cars like these?

I would love to hear from you

Daniel

PHers Iguana and Melv both deal with this sort of thing IIRC

I'm guessing this guy is way out of your way seeing as he's in Edinburgh but you never know he might be down your way and be able to help. If so I can highly recommend him, he dropped of my 430 and would happily use him again. Definitely worth a email.

Speak to Paul Lane at Unifreight, and tell him I sent you. I used them to deliver an Aston Martin DBR9 race car to Wilton House last year, utterly perfect service, and well deserving of my reccommendation.

Hello, just been tipped off by Lamborghini Edinburgh that you may want your Lambo taking north, I'm based 30 miles from Oxford at Swindon, have the pleasure of collecting/transporting and formally handing over new Lamborghini for Edinburgh & Reading Centre and Gray Paul, Dick Lovett Ferrari. I'm often going north and infact I was in Edinburgh dropping off a 560 last weekend.

Feel free to look me up via my descreet site. Regards, Matthew

Just wanted to put a good service report forward for Prime Vehicles, I started chatting to the owner and driver Matthew James on the day I purchased my car, We agreed that he would collect from Wales last Friday and deliver up to me.

Dealing with Prime added to the all round excitement of the purchase, he knew very much what he was talking about in moving supercars and by no means was just some bloke picking up and delivering a motor !

Before loading a full inspection was done on my behalf including checking all docs and paperwork etc and upon delivery took time to show me how to use the E Gear and all the other workings of the car.

On top of that he was competitive against some others I got a quote from, When I get my next Lambo no doubt I will be using Prime !

you want somebody that that transports these sort of cars regular and has the proper truck/trailer that can be loaded without damaging your car as its low and most trucks on the road are not built for these sort of cars and will end up damageing your car

Any of you transport guys could do a to/from Switzerland for an LP670SV?
Thinking of bringing mine over to UK and can't be arsed to drive what is an extremely dull journey

Yep exactly what we have at Prime, bespoke made for us with air suspension, rear/mid engined cars are loaded correctly (backward) so as to be legal on axles weights, the unique design of the trailer bed means no stress is put on the clutch, lowest we've collected was an Audi R8 GT3 car and believe me, that was low!

Whether a private client or dealership client, I pride myself on giving the same same expert approach and handover you would expect for such marques. Many thanks for your kind words and look forward to helping in the future.

Thanks. I was interested in the exact one in the picture which appears to be very lightweight due to apparently only having a concertina cover that slides out over the car. I previously had a Brian James RD3 which was great but could do with something lighter. I also like the fact that the one in the picture seems to have a full width ramp and appears to suit cars with low ground clearance.
Actually I just noriced that Prime Vehicles use one, so I've just emailed them asking for help..
