740 stretch limo
There is a 740 stretch limo for auction on Ebay.
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/175332385...MAAOSwTPViuJr7 Were it not in Ireland, I could be tempted by this. It must be a fairly unusual vehicle, especially as it is a factory built version. How much would it cost to bring it back from Ireland? |

Get a quote from Shiply, I've used companies on there several times for transport.

https://www.esky.co.uk/flights/ci/bf...20%7CBFS-26851 Get the seller to pick you up then drive it back like Mark suggests - ferry might sting you a bit as it's going to be 18-19ft long so will incur a penalty on length i'd guess but you'd have a nice drive back from the north-west to the sunny south coast.

On the downside 500+ miles in an ancient 740 stretch limo will probably set you back about £180 + in petrol at todays prices

It looks as if these may not be as rare as I though. By the time one has included tax, insurance, travelling, petrol and ferry costs, it will probably cost an extra grand on the purchase price. It's an auction, so it could go for in excess of £1,500. £2,500 may well be it's current value, but you guys would have a better idea of this than me.
I think I'm going to pass on this, and stick with my salvaged 740SE saloon. I'm enjoying driving that, and it fits into a supermarket parking space. |

I don't think it will sell for much more than 1k.

I have a feeling it will end up on the banger track tbh.
