Shipping my classic from USA to UK

The guys at Shipmycar did a fantastic job from start to finish, which for me, had a restoration I had to complete in the middle. So was a lengthy process. Even so, I had great communication, I never felt forgotten, attention to detail was top rate, and they handled everything as true professionals. I would recommend this company with no reservations.

Great service, Attention to detail to my Camaro was flawless

My 1SS Camaro was shipped over for me from the US earlier this year and was trouble free and updated along the way.

The biggest thing for me is the attention to detail and keeping in line with the American realism of the car such as:-
-Keeping both rear light diffusers red (not changed to orange or white) while still flashing orange
-LED indicators in the wing mirrors not drilled into the side wing.
- GM front number plate holder with USA size number plate
- BOTH rear lights are illuminated when the side lights are on not just the one like most other companies.
-Reversing light and fog light in the existing correct housing, not a pull down separate add on, with a small switch hidden on the dashboard.

when looking into shipping a car it is easy to look past the above, but for me its these touches that stay with the car and keep it the American way its intended, no corners cut or dodgy lighting. I get a number of Camaro owners wishing they had the same attention to detail and the same light set up as mine and others who have had their car shipped from ship my car.

I couldn't fault the process and the attention to detail and I'm sure this is no different with the other models of cars they ship over.

thanks guys and keep up the good work.

Great service at the right price

Bringing my first car in from Japan, my friend put me on to ShipMyCar as being my best option for Customs clearance.
Nick did a great job of talking me through the process, then rapidly sorted everything.
Would recommend them to anyone.

Peace of mind throughout the service

Nick and Kingsley have professional and helpful throughout all the stages of importing my 2014 Camaro ZL1.

If I had any questions they'd answer them straight away no matter how silly they may have been.

I would recommend Nick and Kingsley to anyone who is in the market of importing a car.

I will definitely be using them in the future.

All the best guys!

Excellent importation process, handled by experts.

I would fully recommend the guys at shipmycar, having dealt with them on the importation of a 1960s Mercedes from America. They outline the process in simple terms, provide excellent value for money and did everything they said they would, throughout the 12 week process.

It ended up costing me no more than if I had done everything myself, but with the added benefits of all forms being completed correctly and with the import duty all taken care of. 10/10, well done all!

Overall very happy, although some items seemed expensive.

I picked Shipmycar to ship my Mustang back from Florida because their transport costs were reasonable, they offered a door to door complete service and Nick and Kingsley seemed trustworthy and knowledgeable.
I did feel the costs for conversion were high but had heard horror stories of bodged jobs and wanted the work done well. They would not negotiate on price and described what needed to be done as the price justification. I cannot fault he conversion, it was expertly and sympathetically done but not cheap.
As for service, they went out of their way to organise pickup around my travels and made the importation a painless process.
The only reason I did not award 5 stars was cost - some costs seem reasonable, others seem high. However if you want a top job done and good service I thoroughly recommend them.

A very professional service that I would recommend to anyone shipping a car from USA to UK

Kingsley runs a very unique niche service. I initially shipped my mustang from the USA in a container and all went fine until I hit the UK complications of the tax office, IVA, modifications and 'red tape'.

I found these gentlemen by chance and they took over and 'got it sorted' without fuss or complications at a reasonable price,

The next vehicle I ship will be handled in its' entirety by them! I strongly recommend their great service.
