17.5% on the total inc. shipping and £50 duty.
Watch out for all the hidden costs, loading, un-loading storage etc.
Try www.kingstown-shipping.co.uk - they will give you an 'all-in price' ;) |

i have done this a few times allow about 3000 pounds on top of your buying price in the usa to being road legal in the uk. this is for a split that is road legal in the USA.
p.s never use a company called inter global logistics out of Oakland, complete nightmare.....NEVER again! |

| I agree on interglobal, terrible people skills. They had their tow truck driver sneak my 67 Mustang Fastback out of another shippers warehouse! The tow truck driver faked a call to me and told them I said it was OK to take the car 2 miles and charge me $150 when I was on my way down to drive it the 2 miles myself! Never do business with them again. |

its seems the more I ask about the more people who have had problems with interglobal.
At last I have my documents from them, they are only 3 months late but at least I did not have to fly to San Fran to get them!! |
