    Cheers lads!

    It took UK customs 2 or 3 days to release it. The car got delivered about 10 days later.

    Heres some pics of work in progress:

    well wear, and thanks for the shipping company link.
    I'm looking at importing a classic pickup sometime this year, and that company seems cheaper than the ones I was looking at

    Can anybody confirm if the 5% vat for a classic car imported from the US through the UK still applies? Is a UK address necessary or could it be shipped via Belfast, for example?

    VAT is paid at the local rate wherever it lands. I paid mine in Felixstowe through Kingstown Shipping.

    The car must be 100% original to get the 5%, any modifications and you pay the 20% UK.
