Any friendly pongoes out that way at the moment?

Even better if you can find some Cloggies, as they are extremely obliging!

Does it roll?
Try a towing A-frame?
They do tow well on the frame, infact i've not found a vehicle (with all wheels attached) that didn't pull well and being legally "a trailer" it can stay SORN.
yes, I've even pulled a Reliant Rialto.
Too far for me to do it tho.

Buy one? Borrow one?
You can pick up frames from ebay cheap.
NEW Car Recovery a Frame Towing Dolly Solo One man operation | eBay (£125)

Just a ramdom example, no guarantees if it's the cheapest or best.
Just an idea.

Dont use an a frame as only legal use is to move a broken down vehicle to a place of safety . If you try the vehicle is a trailer argument you will need to comply with con and use regs as to braking system operation . You may well get away with its use , but then again may be you wont . HTSH

all the ones on ebay usually have loads of disclaimers about their usage etc

Just googled it and you can hire a car trailer for £40 per day plus deposit. The one I saw was local to me but I am sure you could get one near most towns.
