It's a 'big ask' I know, but there may be a need to move four FFRR wheels and tyres from Staffordshire to Aberdeenshire
Membership of the exclusive coffee club is obviously provided, but there may also be a more 'specialist' type of beverage available to anyone who can assist with this deed.
There is no rush with getting the wheels to Scotland, but I need someone who can relieve the current owner of them (near J10 M42) so he can free-up the space in his garage.
Please......? The older I get, the more I realise that people confuse wrinkles for wisdom

I'm going to Manchester next week - back up Friday/Sat via leeds - happy to bring them -but taking the punto and not the D3 - I suppose they would fit though. Could bring them up most of the way after that. Seem to remember I had wheels to bring up last year too.......!
Can anyone get them to central Manchester or Leeds by Friday?

Down at the LRW weekend, cab see if poss to swing round via M42. Would be able to get them to home initially and then we can sort that out! Can I swap them with my dinged rims???

Can pick them up early afternoon week Sunday, prob early afternoon.
The speed of that response must say something about my hospitality / coffee as you guys have all been here more than once already!
Thanks guys.
Pete - I guessed you might suggest this but I didn't want to presume!
Alex - I think you would struggle to get four of these in a Punto!
Derek - Sounds good (except the swap bit) but don't want to put you to any trouble!
Will keep going to see if any 'non-members' take the plunge........ The older I get, the more I realise that people confuse wrinkles for wisdom

I just go up the M42 across the A5, just a nice wee run! Besides, have you van loadbed in so it gets more use!
JMC,
I am offshore at the moment but during my break will be going down to Southampton then coming back up to Aberdeen to go offshore on the 1st July. PM before the 15th if you haven't managed to sort it by then.
Looks like it's sorted Trevor (via DSL) but thank-you for the offer all the same. If you are passing my door (1m off the A90) you are still welcome to join the coffee club!! The older I get, the more I realise that people confuse wrinkles for wisdom

If for any reason this doesn't happen I'm in Glasgow every month (usually 1st Wednesday), so can get them back to Cumbria. Also heading down to Scotch Corner/Leeming Bar area every couple of months.
