You might want to compare container

want to sort out ahead of time.

Allan, your post strikes a chord with a
cunning plan I'm
developing for 2017 or 2018. Can you
give me an idea of the
likely cost of buying a small camper van -
I'm considering
shipping mine from the UK and, apart
from the cost, I'm
uncertain as yet about the requirements
regarding the
temporary importation of a foreign
registered vehicle (emissions
and the like). Buying and selling may be
an easier alternative. I
assume that shipping the glider to Oz
was in a trailer and RORO
ferry? Any advice and costings for that
would be appreciated.

Jim

Recent experience showed that container is about twice as expensive as RORO and more headaches coming to the US. It worked for us because we brought 2 gliders in trailers plus a crap load of parts.
