Do any forum members have recent experience in shipping vehicles from Australia to UK? If so, would you mind letting me know the approximate shipping and handling costs (either for RORO or containerised shipping).

A few years ago I shipped from UK to Aus. I used RORO , no problem. I used the following contact which was excellent. julie@eliteshipping.co.uk I think the contact came from Dickie Grace?
I feel sure it could be arranged in reverse.
The RORO company was Höegh Autoliners that transport all the new cars and use the spare space for second hand cars. Same car care is taken as new.

Cheers Rob - yes, I have used Hoegh (amongst others) many times to ship from UK to Aus...i normally use Hill Shipping in UK or Seaway Shipping in Oz. Was just wanting to see if anyone had specific Oz to UK pricing.....

What’s the car, with the Aud crashed is it the 14k gbp gransport ?https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/de...-6429889?pageSource=details&id=SSE-AD-6429889
?? No?? That one needs quite a bit of work from what I can gather...and I would never go near a car that someone bought as a speccy...and then quickly chose to walk away from. I love this quote from that ad...

All Gransports in Australia are UK imports, with the only cars brought to Australia by dealers being base spec in 2005.

(so the seller is saying 'all', and then 10 words later implying 'most'. And as it stands, it is factually incorrect....the two I am considering selling are 2 of the 6 Aus delivered GS Spyders, which are essentially LE spec (seat heaters, xenons, etc. No LE spec per se...but highly specced).
