[urq] Auto Shipping Recommendations

Wed Jun 21 13:24:58 PDT 2017

Jim,

Contact Jim at auto transport (ArrangeCarTransport at gmail.com). 

I've used him 2-3 times, and my brother once. Always got the cheapest shipping quote I've seen, and cars always arrived in good order. He does this as a retirement gig, so if you're not in a rush, he takes good care of you. Tell him Justin sent ya!

And glad to see this list wake up again. Our UrQ is still in many pieces and sitting in epoxy powder coating on a body dolly waiting for the body shop to make time to get to the rust repair. The urq'd 4000 is sitting at my in laws collecting dust to make room in garage for kitchen reno stuff, and there's an RS4 waiting for a motor to go back in after the original ate an Intake flap. Never a dull moment! :)

Still lurking here 6 years after selling my ’83, which ironically I believe made it back to Europe shortly thereafter.  Caretaking a ’95 S6 avant and ’04 Allroad 6MT currently, and adding a 2006 VW Touareg V8 to the stable this week….hence my inquiry.

I received a few recommendations from the s-car-list and thought I’d reach out further to this one, if only to get more traffic rolling on it.  Anyone have good experiences with anyone in particular?  I know I’m dealing mostly with broker’s and would rather deal with a less shady one someone has had good experience with.  Thanks and hope all have a great summer of wrenching and driving!
