Hi - Does anyone have any experience shipping a car bought in Doha back to the states? Trying to find out if it's really cost effective once you factor in taxes, shipping, etc. Thanks for any information.

Has anyone tried shipping a car back to the UK from Doha? Does anyone have a number for the Western Gulf Agency?

Cheers

Usually the agent will try to consolidate more items within the same container, so it works out cheaper. Prices really vary and I think it's much lower than what people think.

Personally I am trying to ship a motorbike from UK down here.

ok thanks - do you know if those containers are $3000 flat or does weight factor in too?
