Join the aa/rac, with a RELAY level of cover or higher.

Wait 48 hours for the cover to take effect.

Ring them and tell them your Omega has broken down just as you were setting off on a journey up to Gainsborough (they will need the exact address!!)

Wait an hour for your free lift to arrive and ride in the truck all the way up to Lincolnshire.

Havent done it myself, but a guy I sold a saab 9-5 with a seized engine did it and had no problems at all. They relayed it from Nottingham down to Hereford for him !!

Thats not a bad idea, the only trouble could be is that i am 200 miles away from Wales :-/

Be careful on that one Steve. It may seem like a good trick but they are on to it.

I am really on a push to get this resolved as soon as possible its just the fact that i feel helpless as i am so far away.

Do we know the new owner?

its going back to the owner, another Forum member

[Crazydad]

Do you know anyone with a set of 'Trade Plates' if it is a runner?

No unfortunately not.
good idea though.

Couldnt answer that, the Saab was taxed.

[Crazydad]

Alternatively, tax it and drive it up. Then take the tax disc in for a refund. That way it should only cost you one month's tax plus the cost of petrol.  

The car is not insured Martin

As you know Steve, if it's parked on the road and the neighbours get too snotty, they'll report it to the police and it will be towed and crushed.

Might be worth a little jaunt to the land of the sheep worriers to take it back yourself.

You can arrange insurance for one day only.

If I could help I would but I'm a also about 200 miles away.

Thanks for your advice Martin

I can sell it to recoup the money Steve..It will save the problem all round..

If Mutantcav sends me the documents i will put it up for sale.

If the car you bought from him had been any good none of this would have happened..

You WILL get your money Steve don't worry.
