Hello, My car has broke down and it may have to be transported back to UK, I have sent my wife and kids home by plane. Problem is I am struggling to find anybody to transport my dog back home. Is anyone traveling by road to Uk soon and is willing and has room for me and Border collie cross. I can help with driving. Or you have a English registered car you want to be transported back to UK.

Regards  Robert

Hi , sorry but your links do not work.

I have tried few companies for dog transport and they are not available for few weeks and also charge around £800-900

Regarding your car. There are mechanics for every make of car here in Spain. Costs a lot to have a car taken back to the UK.

The repair is not that difficult. Problem is the steering rack is damaged and car is RHD vw transporter. It may take long time to get the bits into this country.

Why don't you ask a garage, VW has factories in Spain. 

Don't think they do in the UK.

Thanks, The car has been taken away and is awaiting diagnosis. 

I hope they can give me good news soon but I can not stay here for too long due to work commitments.

We have made it back home.

All I can say if you buy RAC/AA international cover read small print.

At the end I had to find accommodation, car hire, parts and garage my self, RAC did nor help much only wasted my time.
