re: Moving company & costs
Have you spoken to the Magyar Autóklub (Hungarian car club) as being the NGO dealing with such matters. Here vehicles of that age are called 'oldtimer' and I think that there are special regs for that class e.g. there is a museum rating for old vehicles and the club can advise on what this entails.

re: Moving company & costs
Registering in Hungary is an issue because of 1) historical baggage, where in the pre-system change every machine was registered and you could not change a cars engine and lots of bureaucracy - so no purchased recons or short motors like the uk. and 2) today Hungary does not want Europes cheap old (polluting engined) cars filling up Hungarian roads.
Commercial vehicles (trucks) however are easier to import and there is very low registration fee aka import duty.
Even for Hungarian cars the tax on ownership transfer is high and for a heap of the week type car the transfer tax can be more that the value of the car. On the other hand annual road tax is quite low
It would be worth talking to the Auto Klub about both vehicles

How much have you got?
Now is a good time to get rid of all the clutter that you thought you needed but have never used!
I and quite a few others here took the DIY route and hired vans, trailers, small trucks etc.
Hungary is not a popular destination for removal companies, so can be expensive and/or may involve long wait.

Fen,
I filled two standard size skips when I cleared out my UK house. Haven't missed or regretted any items I got rid of in the 4 years I have been here.
New life - new start.
