London Exotic and Classic Car Towing, Flatbed with Soft-Tie Straps
London Towing connects London collector car owners with soft-strap-trained flatbed operators. Supercar transmission failure on a back road, lowered tuner high-centred on a parkade ramp, classic muscle car move from auction to garage, show car transport in winter, flatbed-only with sub-10-degree ramp angle and soft straps every time.
- Soft-strap loading on every call
- Sub-10-degree ramp angle
- Paint, splitter & trim protection
Luxury protection
How London Exotic Car Towing Protects Six-Figure Vehicles
Exotic and luxury vehicles have three problems standard tows do not handle well: low ground clearance that catches on ramp angles, active air suspension that drops to riding height (making everything even lower), and delicate front air dams or splitters that scrape on standard flatbed ramps. The London operator arrives with either an extended-length flatbed for a shallower ramp angle, or wooden boards to raise the ramp height so nothing touches the underside during load.
Soft-tie straps replace steel chains because they cannot scratch alloy wheels or damage paint at the attachment points. Wheel nets rather than frame hooks distribute pull force evenly across each tire. For classic vehicles with vinyl or period-correct chrome bumpers, the operator confirms attachment points before hookup, some classics need bumper-avoidance straps for the winch pull onto the deck.
Enclosed transport is available for high-value exotics that need to move between London and Toronto, Montreal, or auction houses. Ask on the call about enclosed vs open flatbed. Enclosed adds cost but protects paint from road debris, salt spray in winter, and weather on longer long-distance transport. For post-collision recovery of exotic vehicles, accident recovery uses the same soft-tie approach.

How Your London Exotic Vehicle Tow Actually Runs
-
Identify the vehicle
Tell the operator the make, model, ride height, drive type, and whether the vehicle is drivable. Mention 'lowered,' 'air ride,' 'low front lip,' or 'show car' so the right ramp angle and rigging arrives.
-
Confirm pickup access
Parkade, driveway, dealer lot, race track, auction venue. The operator confirms the rig can clear the access, some narrow parkades or low garage doors need approach planning.
-
Soft-strap loading
Sub-10-degree flatbed arrives, ramp deploys, soft straps anchor at chassis tie-down points, vehicle winches up at controlled speed. No chains, no hooks, no pressure on suspension or fairings.
-
Delivered with care
Tow to the dealer, body shop, storage facility, auction venue or your home. Operator confirms zero damage on unload before paperwork is signed.
