EdMorris Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 I imported an engine from the states and it was about that iirc. There will be 'port costs' too, so allow for a little extra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzi Posted January 28, 2011 Author Share Posted January 28, 2011 Duty £800 for the engine + £235 for shipping = £1035 £1035 x 3.5% duty = £1071.22 VAT £1071.22 x 20% = £1285.46 £214.24 in charges Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
