Vehicle Transport Between the UK and Europe
You can request a quotation for transporting a suitable car or van between the UK and Europe, in either direction. Vehicle transport UK to Europe and European vehicle collection back into the UK are both considered for motor traders, dealerships, auction buyers, exporters, importers and private customers.
Nothing here is priced automatically. Every European journey is quoted individually after the route, vehicle, travel costs, documentation and access requirements have been reviewed.
Movements considered
- From the UK to destinations in Europe
- From Europe back to the UK
- From UK auction sites to European destinations
- From dealerships to customers or businesses in Europe
- From European dealerships or sellers to the UK
- To and from agreed ports, terminals and business locations

Pricing
How a European Quotation Is Worked Out
No automatic price is shown. A quotation may take the following into account:
- Collection and delivery distance
- Destination country
- Ferry or Eurotunnel costs
- Tolls and road charges
- Low-emission or restricted-access zones
- Vehicle dimensions and weight
- Vehicle condition
- Loading requirements
- Collection appointments
- Port or terminal charges
- Customs-related delays
- Waiting time
- Required delivery date
- Return journey availability
- Additional documentation or access requirements
The final quotation states clearly what is included and what is excluded, including crossing costs, tolls, terminal charges and waiting time.
