Trade Plater question

Santa:
When I was a TM, we had a large fleet of cars as well as trucks. Some new cars came on trailers, but if it was delivered by a plater, I would always give them a lift to the bus or train station. Is this the norm still?

I worked for one firm who moved posher cars to motoring journalists for a while and we often dropped (not me personally) the odd sleek wheels at Jeremy Clarkson’s gaff in the Cotswolds but as he was rarely home,his then spouse dropped the driver at the nearby rail station .I drove lots of Jags and frequent Porsches but it’s amazing how the novelty soon wears off,knowing there’s a long hitch at the end point.

Audi’s up to Ayr-Scotch was always a bitter-sweet venture. :open_mouth: My first ever hitch was in a hillman with a bloke going to Penrith for a budgie fanciers meeting,cages full of tweeting critters all the way from Preston :open_mouth: .My final hitch was in a 6 convoy of volvo funeral cars…100 mph down to Liverpool from Forton.World within a world type of trade. :slight_smile:
