Default BMW - car question?

Can anybody tell me if in their opinion it would be worth shipping a 10 year old BMW 3 series out to oz. It is old but in excellent condition. My husband
thought it might be worth shipping it out even if it was to sell it on once we
get there?

Thanks in advance.

It's very unlikely to be cost effective to take. The general concensus is that it's not worth taking a car unless it's of special interest or sentimental value.

Check out www.karmanshipping.com, there's a calculator on there

Hi there

not taking my 4 yr old merc, it's not just the shipping it's the duty payable at the other end, and if parts are needed, which all cars need sooner or later !!

I think you would need to be rich or own a very,very special car to do this.

Thank you ! By the way, I'd recommend giving them a call if you need further help. I did and they were extremely helpful. I'll be using them to ship my car.
