snowtracdave Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Can anybody recommend a reliable transport firm or have experience of shipping a vehicle from Europe to the UK ? I am looking to get a price to ship a LWB Land Rover sized vehicle from Austria to the North Essex in the UK . Any leads or recommendations much appreciated .

Mark Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Would it not be cheaper maybe to hire a car trailer etc and get it over. :??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowtracdave Posted July 6, 2009 Author Share Posted July 6, 2009 It may well turn out that it is if it comes to it. Don't much fancy driving from Colchester to Vienna & back but....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Dave - I can put you in touch with our freight forwarding company. They can ship pretty much anything from anywhere. If they can't then they will know who can! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Degsy Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Another alternative would be to try the agents who specialise in return loads, this can often be a cheaper way to move goods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andreadavide Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Is the car road legal? The cheapest option could really be to drive her to the UK. If you aren't in a hurry I volunteer as a co-driver. Andrea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Good options above too! Email sent this morning Dave and should be in your inbox.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowtracdave Posted July 7, 2009 Author Share Posted July 7, 2009 Yes - got your e mail Jack & thank you again for that , as soon as i am able I will give the gentleman a call . Andrea - unfortunately none of the vehicles are roadworthy or even driveable so not an option but thanks for the offer /suggestion . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
