Ascope Shipping - Jacob was very helpful going out of his way to make sure everything happened in a smooth transition. And especially because he was shipping something (A COMPLETE CAR ENGINE) to me in Southern Africa that i had bought online. Incredible service! Will be using them again and definitely recommend them to anyone.

Thank you Ascope for ensuring my car arrived as planned. I was not in the UK and was coordinating everything from a different country but the constant communication and assurance kept me calm throughout the process. Special thanks to Jacob who handled my case and organized for my car to be collected from the dealer, taken for inspection and finally shipped to Mombasa.
i would highly recommend you to others!
