advice on shipping the car please

[Willber]

Hi everyone! Need some advice please

 

We are emigrating on the 1st May, can't wait!

We are just pondering over whether to take the car or not. Is anyone familiar with the process and the costs incurred, the car was manufactured in 2004.

 

Thanks in advance

Drop Mandy a line on mandy@h2h.com.au - she's put together a fact sheet on doing this which I'm sure she'll happily send out to you. Alternatively you can contact her via her website Welcome to the NEW Home2Home website

Hi

We have also been looking into this and contacted Mandy who was very helpful. she pointed us in the direction of Cargo-online and they have gave us a full quote. It is quite expensive, ours came in at about £5000. Also I think there is quite a lot of paperwork involved.

 

We checked out what the car would be worth in Oz, but some people say its difficult to sell a uk car out there. Dont really see why this is, as the spec isn't any different.

 

Same dilemma as you really. Still thinking on it.

I've just set my step dad onto this, we have a ford focus 2003 had from new with v low mileage. He is going to find out how much to ship and if worth it, I will post the info when I get it.

Looking at all the paperwork and cost, the cars up for sale not worth the hassle to be honest.
