Trailer to loan or recommendations...

Post by Dobie177 »

Hi all - having volunteered to have my car on the stand at the NEC Classic Car Show in November I realise I have no way of getting it there (aside from driving which, in November, from Surrey, doesn't feel a viable option!).

I wondered if anyone either had suggestions for trailer hire - or, even better, if anyone would be generous enough to loan a trailer for the few days (10th-13th Nov). I appreciate the latter is a massive ask, but I figured no harm in reaching out to this community!! As mentioned, I am Surrey based.

Thanks
Howard.

Hi Howard,
I have driven my car to the 289 stand in Nov before. It’s not that bad providing you have adequate heating flowing into the drivers footwell. I only had screen heating at the time and got seriously cold. E.g. shivering so needed a visit to a service stn to warm up with the hand drier.
I guess having the hood on would have been a good idea but it wasn’t raining so I thought I would be OK.
Driving up earlier in the day of course was warmer than coming home after 7.00pm.
