Actual cost of shipping: Between £800 and £1200 depends whether RoRo or Container.

Plus cost of getting car from place of sale to US docks.
Plus 10% import duty on value of car Plus shipping
Plus dockside handling and storage fees.
Plus agents fees for handling paperwork.

On top of all that add 17.5%VAT.

Then cost of getting car to home.

Its still a cheap way to get a car though as the starting price is low, depending on model.

remember any type of truck (ie f150 lighting, dodge ram etc) is subject to 22% duty and not 10%.

Ah just been looking on eBay america and wondering how much it would cost to get a car across from their.

I think its around £1500-£2k in total (depending what car) If you are buying something over £15k then i'd understand - but if its just a £5k car i'd say its more hassel than its worth.

i bought a limousine over there and shipped it over myself, cost about £1500 for shipping and insurance, then had to pay £200 to get the container removed and taken to a depot, then a couple of hundred quid for clearance / paperwork, then duty and vat! The Sva and mot!! Still worked out far cheaper than buying here!
