Sipley normally have Trade Plate drivers that will drive it if its drivable.
But then if its drivable, you might as well drive it.

I look forward to hearing more about this :-)

Any car trailer hire places near you? And do you know anyone with a tow car which can tow 1.5 tons? That worked out cheapest for me, when I had to move my GLi about.

EDIT: Hell Driver's offer sounds ideal :-)

Cheers
