if you go on www.thereptiletaxi.co.uk i think it is email them or phone them tell them the postcodes and they will contact you back telling you how much it would be. But remember if it is going from hastings to leicester then they have to come down from manchester to hastings and then to the destinations. I was quoted from kent to devon about 240 miles it was £150.00 so quite expensive. But i hear they are very good.

She did one for me, Sheffield to Dover for £80, its cheaper if you're able to wait until they can fit it in with another run.

The service was out standing, friendly people and snakey beast turned up warm and cosy.

Highly Recommended!!!!

to be fair, they have to go from manchester area, to sheffield, to dover and back to manchester.. for the sake of 80 quid and to try and get something out of that?? i dont think you can really.. its virtually cost.

I was being fair, I think you've perhaps misunderstood me, i thought the £80 they quoted was fantastic, i had no problem with it at all!

All i meant by its cheaper if they can fit it in with a run is that they had two pick ups in Kent and one in London anyway so they added mine in.
