Manchester to Glasgow

dauphin · 18th March 2018, 10:57

Big ask, I know, but I’m buying some body panels (bonnet, wing and door) in Manchester and need to get them back to the Glasgow area. If anyone is making the journey and has room, that would be fantastic.
Otherwise I will be doing a day trip myself, possibly as soon as next Saturday 24/3, and might be able to bring back items for others so let me know if interested.

sadly the bonnet will not fit in a ZTT

A 75 bonnet won’t fit ? I’ve heard of people fitting bonnets in their cars...

So does Rover 75 bonnet fit in a tourer--yes or no, was going to pick up one for another member this week ?
