    What about Overlanders? They have a base in Memmingen. If its feasible to get the bike there, they could collect?

    that's odd: he posted a pic on his FB page this week collecting a Honda in Italy….that's a lot further than Germany…

    Very mixed reviews on him, he seems to cram bikes into the van. Not used him myself but have heard very good reviews and some horrendous

    Yeah. He’s 50/50 lately based on his socials. He seems to have got scammed a few times now with non payment so maybe he has to cover his losses.

    I used Slampi to bring a bike over from spain, I've no complaints, now it did come in on a open trailer but that didn't bother me as is is a offroad bike. Price was very reasonable, think it was 250 but that was 2 years ago

    Could only find one review on jartka, have used Dominic in jarvis before but he wasn't able to collect until October ,Dominic would deffo be my first choice, teds trucking collected bike in uk few months ago but doesn't do germany himself, he gets Dominic to cover it if it's germany.

    I've used both Slampi and Dominic. Both were an enjoyable experience.
