    hi all, i am looking to import a car from the UK, nothing special, 2013 family car. I was wondering if anyone is aware of a company\garage\individual who can bring the car back from the UK?
    Does anyone know of such a service in Ireland?

    Do you want someone to take care of the finances and paper work or just show up load car and deliver it?

    hi, i am willing to discuss finance and delivery. failing that i would probably want to arrange load and delivery whilst i take care of the finances and paperwork myself.

    Where are you in the country? I'm in Donegal but I personally know of 4 companies around here that collect/deliver from the U.K. on a weekly basis. Prices are roughly €350-450 depending on location.

    There was someone posting on boards as a verified representative, on behalf of a company. Unfortunately, the thread doesn't seem to work now.

    Good few advertising on Donedeal that will collect runners/non-running cars, price will be anything from €300-500, depending on pick-up/drop-off.

    I'd want bullet-proof references / referrals before considering getting into bed with any of these guys.

    Woodside Haulage move a lot of cars and freight but not sure if they do single cars for individuals but would definitely be worth a call. :)

    Not sure I'd be comfortable with that kind of hands off approach buying a car.

    I'd want to inspect it in detail while at the seller (garage or private), not to mention the chances of damage or otherwise while in transit.

    OP are you planning to buy a car without physically seeing it?
