Container FF Anybody

Help anyone put a FF in a container, any suggestions

What I think I know so far, I need to put it in transport mode, 130 quid then I have to drive it from the dealers
to the shippers. That should be fun on the bump stops.

Any suggestions or advice gratefully received

I wouldn't want to be driving it from the dealers to the shipping agent on the bump stops. Not only will it be very uncomfortable, it won't do the car any good and it could be dangerous.

Might be worth looking at a GAP tool as then you'd be able to do it yourself just before it goes into the container. Thumbs Up

Thanks David but unfortunately I don't have a choice if I want to put her in transit mode its only a couple of miles
from the dealers to the container.
I don't think its dangerous once drove a P38 round Edinburgh on the bump stops Rolling Eyes didn't do any more
damage to the car

As for the Gap tool yep gonna get the BT model only thing is the UK .Gov has got enough money out of me
in the last 3 months so to avoid the VAT that's getting sent home save around 80 quid
