got a few quotes $3200 for either US or UK is that expensive?

Or $2300 to New Zealand.

Wow, I just shipped a car to New Zealand,
I didn't arrange the shipping, but don't think it cost that much, I will have to check now.

It cost me about $900 to ship an Escort panelvan to NZ - but that was 25 years ago ....

I think it was '98 when I brought three Mercs in from HK - about $1500 each or a bit less IIRC, but I had them all in the one container (could have got 4 in I'm told).

yep both uk destinations ,tilbury is near dartford in essex/kent , felixstowe is in suffolk [both locations are south east england.
p.s. austrailian vanlines are the wankers who smashed up the back end of my '54 oval & then denied all knowledge of the damage.....tossers.
