We have just shipped our car over last month and were surprised as to how easy the first step was. We shipped it in the container along with our furniture.

About two weeks after it left the UK we were able to collect it ie open the container and drive it away. All of the documentation had been completed in advance by Burke Bros in the UK and MK Worldwide Movers here in Cyprus. Mario took us to customs and negotiated it all. The customs formalities were just a question of completing one form and then paper stamping after we had shown our passports, driving licences and the registration document for the car. All we paid was €270 for the port wharfage charges and we drove away with our C104 (is that it?) and the car.

Mind you, later this week we have to go to Nicosia to extend or do something with the C104...then we'll see!
