Would you

[v6 steve]

As most of you know the LE isnt well and im not putting the Drain on the road this year so the only way to get a calibra to Billing is to tow one down, now i sold my trailer last month to a mate and i can use it any time i want but he is using it the billing week end so the only choice is the A-Frame, would you tow a calibra the 780 mile round trip on a A-Frame or not bother brining a calibra to Billing ?

[Fraz]

I would not risk using an A frame on that distance ..just enjoy the weekend without having to clean one

Oh and made it a poll ...if you don't want that just let me know

[v6 steve]

what difference does the distance make (just trying to be devils advocate) its 99% motorway if it was on the trailer i would only do 55 mph anyway, iv towed from Gretna and towed heaver

[v6 steve]

getting an other trailer is out the question unless i can get one for free (not going to spend money on somthing when i could put that money into fixing the LE)

[Fraz]

distance = more likely to have problems, more plod to get nosey or bored so pull you over. I don't think AA RAC will recovery you and then a car on an A frame if something did go wrong

I would not do it as per you question

[v6 steve]

now theres an idea could put the frame in the car just in case

[Fraz]

that's a better idea...if it does breakdown then AA will take you there...if it makes it there then AA gets it home

Stick a stamp on it and post it there you jump in the frontera and meet up with it when u get there lol

[matty0785]

i wouldnt bother with billing at all and spend the time/money sorting the LE out instead

[v6 steve]

ill be going to Billing with or with out a calibra

[STEVA]

wouldnt bother Steve might not get 50 mile before the piston decides to evacuate the block basically its a ticking time bomb waiting to go off!!

I didn't think using an A Frame was good for the 4x4. Drive it, will be fine

[Allys Cally]

Your a funny man Mr Hill

[v6 steve]

Driving it is out the question, i have been offered an engine that i can borrow but that means taking mine out taking his out putting his in mime taking his out mine putting it back in his think ill be doing it on the tow frame 4x4 is not connected drive shaft is off

I have A-framed a car for 200 miles and it is, as you say, easy once you are bowling down the motorway. But, if you A frame a Calibra what are you going to tow it with that is heavy enough to be legal?

Its a long way and there are some pretty ***** coppers out there.
