Car shipping rates vary dependant on the amount of traffic moving to that particular part of the world and distance shipped. Many shipping lines offer very attractive car shipping rates due to the volume of return traffic they have from a particular country.

Car shipping rates also reflect the size of the vehicle. A
normal saloon car  will carry a lower rate than say a long wheelbase land-rover or a people carrier. A standard saloon car shipped to Sydney from the port of Southampton will cost on average £ 1050.00 plus insurance. (Dependant on value).
Car shipping costs to the Mediterranean can start from 
 £ 660.00 + insurance for a Port to Port rate for a small sized vehicle like a mini. For current shipping rates please

(All prices shown are estimates only, shipping lines
frequently adjust sea-freight costs in  line with currency and fuel cost fluctuations. Rates may also change depending on volume  of car shipments on any given route, these changes can be seasonal or market driven.)

Collection charges from your door will obviously vary dependant on the distance from your home to the port of exit. As a rough guide a car collected in London and delivered to Southampton will cost £ 139.00 or you can deliver the car yourself. Please pre-book your car before arriving at the port in order we can arrange necessary customs and dock gate passes.

Car shipping insurance cover applies from the time we collect your vehicle or take  it over at the port of exit. Details of insurance is available on our quotation page.

Shipping lines will frequently adjust car shipping costs depending on competition, currency fluctuations, oil prices
or a mixture of these factors. The amount of cars being
shipped to or from any particular country will also effect car shipping prices.
