One piece of advice. Make sure you have it shipped in a container & NOT driven onto the ship. My mates GMC was minus, spare wheel, DVD player & various other parts on collection because it was just driven on & it was damaged, because they pushed it off with an FLT, because the batteries where flat.

10% duty on value of car including transport costs, and then VAT on all of that including the 10% duty! >:( >:(
