Bonnet from Germany to the U.K?

Post by arshad76 »

Apologies if this has already been asked several times, however I am after a bonnet for an E3 and have managed to track one down. Does anyone know what would be the most economical and cost effective method of having it brought to the U.K?

Buyer will not do this for me which is fair enough, but could ask him for any dimensions needed?

Thanks,

Pffff these are a PITA to get them over unharmed I guess. Size will make it costly anyway I guess.

I know Jeroen, which is why I was asking. Damm Walloth and Nesch! For all their faults, I'm still surprised at how they seem to get pretty decent shipping quotes. If anyone knows a way I would greatly appreciate it though.

Advertise on www.shiply.com and you might well get lucky with someone coming back to the UK, with space.
