Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Test

[LSJ (lashdeep]

I have read about the current shipping logistical challenges and it is interesting to hear your experience. How much more expensive was this transport than if it had been done pre-pandemic?

I'm asking as I want to ship a few cars and bikes back from the UK but have been waiting for some of the shipping quotes to come down.

Thanks,

LSJ

All of it. Global shipping is a problem, I work with it daily at work. Effectively the ship arrived 3.5 weeks later than scheduled due to port delays prior to Savannah. This meant we missed the connection from Bremerhaven to Sweden. Buts all is  well, car is safe with me. Maybe I can’t get it through first inspection before winter comes but next Spring I’ll be exercising her in the Swedish woods!

Britt, nice work!

$4500 isn’t bad at all. How much of the four week delay was due to pandemic logistical problems?

Britt,

Was it in a box do you have any pictures of the container it was in etc.? Was there any damage?

Can we ask what the price was? (roughly) ha

She left 4 weeks late from Savannah, just missed the hurricane, popped into the U.K. and then Bremerhaven. Was transferred to a local freighter and sent to Gothenburg. That took about 4 weeks. Then cleared customs with a massive bill and sent by truck from Gothenburg to my house in North Stockholm. Now waiting on paperwork so I can get it through the import inspection and get plates on her. Doubt that will happen before the snow and salt and grit hits so maybe next May. It’s been a long journey and Clyde was very helpful with all the paperwork that I had to get from him to do the import. Oh, I flew to Atlanta in June to see him and the car and to do the purchase.
