Need something shifting up here from bedford. A lad was supposed to be doing it for me on the Landy forum but fails at PM's.

Or anyone down that way who could post would also be helpful

Bedford is a minor detour from Stevenage to Scarborough imho.

Will the winch fit in a Fiesta? I'll courier it up but doubt I'd be cheaper the Collect+, Parcel2go.

It is, but an Evo isn't the most efficient courier vehicle so I also concluded that a parcel company would be cheaper.

not really mate, parcel2go are brokers for couriers, they aggregate parcels from mugs like you so they get a better rate overall.
