| Hi we shipped our car last year with Euromed on its own in a container from Felixstowe. We delivered the car ourselves and it cost £1000 including insurance. We had been quoted just under £600 a couple of months before but all prices shot up with the increase in the price of oil. Don't know if this means prices have now come down again. Ask for quotes that include clearing the car through Customs at Famagusta otherwise this will be an additional cost as it was for us. |

| The cost of the same car here is over double the price than in the UK. So we thought it was worth paying the tax to bring it over. I believe its 40% of the book price. If anyone knows any different please let me know. |

| mags111. I shipped a 7 seater over two years ago via Olaytrans. It cost £1250. This was in it's own container. Much cheaper (about 50%) loaded not in container but I thought the extra cost worthwhile. I packed the car with everything I could get in, it was plated to carry 650+ kilos and I think it did. You have to list eveything in the car. Olaytrans helped me clear the docks and I had no import duty to pay on the load. After getting permission to import the car I paid £2500 import duty, the car was valued at about £6,000. They're supposed to use mid range Glasses guide but mileage isn't taken into the equation. I would recommend Olaytrans. |
