Sold the turbo and seeing what the C20XE can do!

Near Lincoln

Can imagine you finding anyone to do it very cheaply, its 600+ round trip and thats if they're local!

I'd do it for a pound a mile.

Why not get the train and drive it back. You can get insurance for a day etc.

I think looking at his previous posts wil, he was looking for smart cars with burnt out valves to fix *smiley*

But seriously, i would do it for say 600. I'm between brum and glasgow so not too bad but still a very long day!

Going by what Iain has said, you are looking for Smarts to fix, one would assume as a business. Would it not be more cost effective to buy a trailer?

pmsl *hehe!* im doing the smart car thing as a sideline as its almost as easy to fix one as it is to change a mini headgasket. although its a good excuse to get a monster landrover defender this is the first smart im buying to sell on asap, the other two were for me and the gf.
