That was expensive! At the beginning of the year you could get your 40ft container from Southampton/Felixstowe to Yokohama for $1000...................... what costs you is the land side transport not the ship and I believe you will pay more than that $1000 to get the box from Manchester to the docks if you use the shipowner's truck or dedicated freight-train.

Best way to ship a car from the USA is by the car carrier service - same one as LR use to take cars the other way!
Containers do go missing, I haven't heard of a floating multistory carpark being stolen, although 2 have rolled over in the last year............................ Ro-Ro, Roll on Roll Over! and there was the small matter of 1000 Saabs Volvos and BMW's that the Tricolor was carrying when she rolled over off Sandetti Banks a few years back

...count yourselves lucky in UK when it comes to buying prestige cars.
I would expect the 2010 RRS 5.0V8 S/C to cost around €180,000 basic price before speccing it with a few extra options.
That's around GBP156k

We used to do container work out of Felixstowe and trust me when I say we weren't getting anything near that kind of money for delivering and picking up containers from and to there. Average rates were around £1.15 a mile. Most stuff out of Felixstowe went to Midlands so round trip was around £400-£500 for the round trip!! About £2500 for a WEEK was a bloody good week!!
