Evening all. Have a bit of a cheeky question to ask . I need a set of wheels to go from Birmingham, up to Middlesborough & was wondering if anyone is going that way soon I will be happy to bung you some beer tokens for your trouble & as much Tea & bacon sarnies as you can take while you are at mine . Im trying to get the wheels to a member but so far the cheapest quote i've had from a courier is £65 . Only other alternative is to drive them up there but again im probably looking at £50 in petrol ( ooohh those cossies dont half drink ) . If anyone can help us out we would be very gratefull. Thanks... Craig

Try ebay seller 'wheel_carrier' - they seem to be offering an alloy wheel transportation service.

Evening all. Mike thanks for the tip. Will make enquiries Monday morning . Hiya Gozz. Long time no chat . Yep it looks like a 'mid way' meet is the answer. trouble is it is still going to cost both of us around £30 petrol round trip & it seems a shame to go all that way for a 5 min 'rondevue' ( sorry cant spell ). Are there many members around that area that fancy an inpromtu meet

Hiya Rod, like the idea m8 . Thanks for the offer Stuart. At the time we still hadnt finalised the deal & TBH the wheels are still on the car. Thanks to the lousy weather i have only just finished tarting the outer rims up on the 5 spokes ( painting in the kurb marks ). Hopefully will have the 5 spokes on this weekend & all will be well in the world again . When we finalise a time & a place i'll anounce it on here & see if anyone else fancys popping down for a mini meet

I hope to be going up to York on 17th. Dec. to fetch my son. I travel from Somerset. M5 - M42 and I don't mind travelling up to Middlesborough and back to York where I will stay overnight B and B then back home on the 18th. I am glad to help if poss. Small petrol donation would help Mike

Cheers Craig, methinks everytime I am on the M42/A42 temptation will raise it's head , especially when it is dark, siling rain, rush hour(s) and jammed - somebody mention Jam? - up. Happy Christmas everybody Mike

Must admit though, the M42/A42 ain't that bad. Just sit in one of the centrer Lanes (there are lots in places where you get a choice) top speed 45mph and it is amazing how much space materializes in front of you , bit noisy behind mind you and why all those flashing light and victory signs EH Mike
