Wrapping is no problem, I have a load of bubblewrap..
Probably teaching you to suck eggs but if I were sending an interior on a pallet I would put both front seats on first and then use some hefty cable ties to secure the rails to the slats of the pallet. The rear seats and door cards should be able to be stacked fairly squarely on top of the front seats - I'd then use pallet wrap to hold it all together tightly. Should travel fine like that.

@wurlycorner is having my rear arches and bonnet.. I don't know how desperate he is to physically possess them, but he may require your assistance as we're not sure on the best way to ship them either.
If they still need uplifting whilst I'm down in Newquay then I'm happy to come grab them - The Granvia shares the same body as a Hiace so there's loads of room inside. My mate will be in his Transporter as well so between us there'll be a jobby tonne of cargo space :lol:

Thanks for the pallet wrapping advice - I haven't done that before. Also, good idea about fixing the seats to the pallet, first :D

Banbury is certainly nearer to me than you are @bb1boy :lol:

Joking aside, it's an easy route from mine and about an hour and a half. More than happy to collect from there if you'd rather do that than get into pallet sending etc?
I would offer to grab @wurlycorner s stuff too but obviously wont get it all in the car, happy to convoy up with him though so that we only put your mate out for one day?
What say you wurly?

Tried to reply on this yesterday, but the forum kept giving me general error...
I have a reply pasted into notepad on my phone and will copy it in later today (if this one works! :scaredtoss: :lol: )
