Yeah used them once when I was to busy to collect. Just bare in mind that you pay more ontop of what they quote as you pay a fee to shiply for arranging it. Even though when you pay your deposit suposidly to the carrier they don't ever get that. It goes to shiply aswell as the arranging fee. Try hold out as most will beat each other. Just reject the silly offers!

Go to your local Student Bar, somebody will probably have a wank if you show them £150, and probably just drive it from Crewe to yours

Book an MOT in Plymouth and drive it. You're still illegal with no tax but could maybe just plead ignorance on that - I'd say it's worth the risk if it runs totally fine, just have the £150 sitting in your pocket in case you need to bribe an officer
