i talk to one company, they qouted me $350 and if the car is in "ww something in vancouver, its $60 extra"
and fuel chage or surcharge or something....
but, they told me that it could take 4 days to 2 weeks!?
does that sound fair?

We've had our clients use Hansen. They seem to deliver what the promise (pun intended).

Call a lotus or ferrari dealer. they both use a company that uses close carriers I cannot remember their name but they are the best and their price was reasonable.

i really need the reliable, good priced car carrier!!
i talked to mcgill today, they said that they can't work with me till 10 days to 2 weeks, who quoted me $360.
and the other one is called "car carrier" qouted me $670 and $75 extra for being RHD. its bull!

If you need it quicker than any carrier can get it for you, it might just be worth it to Greyhound yourself to Vancouver and drive it over.

The Lethbridge guy...SERIOUSLY. :rofl:

no... thanks for the advice, but going there is not an option, even thou that sounds like its the quickest, cheapest and for sure way of doing....
i have contacted "mcgill" and "car carrier"
mcgill is too busy, car carrier is i think is not reasonable.
is there any other companies out there?:dunno:

Hi, I have personally used Searail and I was really disappointed. The car arrived not only later (almost 16 days), but damaged. One of the drivers somehow hooked the headers on the ramps and not only crushed them but bent them into the steering box and pulled them away from the engine. When I tried, repeadately to get them to come good for the repairs, I first got the run around and then completed ignored altogether. My brother-in-law drove the car to searail in BC from Victoria, about an hours drive and never had any problems with it. So they did the damage but never wanted to take responsibility. My advice find someone or a company who is not out to just get the money and give absolutely no service after they have your money !! I have the proof that they caused this damage and I ahve contacted a lawyer, it would have been cheaper for them to just fix this up but they decided that a the customer is never right !!

Car couriers, Allied, Hansens are all companies we use when we buy out in BC.
