[Healeys] Shipping Healey to Europe

[Skip Saunders]

Check with Steve Bell (“Sprite Guy”) 
. I don’t think he is on the list, but
you might be able to check with him through the Austin Healey Club
 he is
often published in the magazines.   He has arranged several trips overseas
for Healeys

To avoid paying custom fees etc. one should enquire and apply for permission
for a temporary import beforehand to the customs in the country of arrival.
Also make sure the car is technically in order to meat technical EU
standards, e.g. MOT/TüV/APK or whatever it is called in the various
countries.
One should also mention that you will be crossing borders within Europe so
will only have to apply once and not every time you cross a border. Check
with your insurer if you are sufficiently covered. Most countries will have
application forms in English but of course it might be easier to ship to the
UK and travel from there, easy enough with plenty of ferries across the
channel plus a car train under it.

Greetings, there are several of us interested in shipping our Healeys to
Europe for the 2018 5th European Meeting. We are just starting to explore
the options. We expect to tour after the event. 

 

Those of you who have shipped in or out of Europe, can you recommend a cargo
company?

 

Also the port charges, duties and custom fees seem quite expensive. Do these
change with country/port? and do you have recommended ports that are easier
to work with than others?

 

This is new to us so we would appreciate any info you can share and will
take this off-line going forward.

 

Thanks for any help.

 

Randy
