Reviving a couple of year old thread.
Selling my Elan +2 and I've had an enquiry from South Carolina, anyone have any recent experience of this or recommendations please?

A friend of mine is just waiting for his Rover 620 to arrive stateside, shipped out of of Southampton. I will check with him who he used and what the costs, issues were. I think it was pretty easy, he just needed the V5C and then has some forms for tax and registration to fill in when it gets to him. Seems to be just the reverse of shipping one from the US to the UK.
If the car is 25 years old its exempt from the US approval stuff (like the 10 year exemption we have for imports here)

OK my friend used Autoshippers, contracted from the UK. The total cost was about $2000 US. This was shipping Southampton to Jacksonville, Florida. This is one of the big car shipping ports for the South East US so your guy in SC would probably ship there also, or maybe Charelston in North Carolina. www.autoshippers.co.uk/rates.htmI have personally used Hill Shipping and Kingstown to ship cars, both are great. They would probably both be able to advise www.hillshipping.com/www.kingstown-shipping.co.uk/ |
