I had my Kia recovered from London to East Anglia. Thier reviews were good so I went with them as well as the price being reasonable. Vitek was professional and helpful. They took a video of my car upon collecting it. As I wasn't there. They kept me up to date as soon as it was delivered to the mechanic. Great experience dealing with his company and him. Much appreciated.

I recently purchased a vehicle that required transporting from one location to another. Vitek's professional manner, and very reasonable pricing, along with excellent communications are all 5 star.
Everything was organised to the highest standard, and in a very short time frame.
I will happily use Vit Transport again, and would recommend that it is the only transportation service you need.
Very Impressed!

Very polite and professional. Updated periodically the estimated time of arrival and traffic congestion on the M1. Recommend Vit Car Recovery for their service and specifically the classic car enthusiasts as the health and safety of the vehicle and the others were adhered.
