The post VAT 20% – Price Freeze appeared first on Car Shipping and UK Import Specialists.

]]> So 2011 has started with a nice rise in VAT to 20% – petrol prices are up at 125p and diesel up to 130p a litre, but we have made the decision to freeze all of our prices from 2010 in order to help if you are planning on shipping your car to the UK

This means our containerised shipping cost from New York is still an unbeatable £695 and all modifications for IVA remain at our highly competitive 2010 prices.

We at ShipMyCar wish everyone a very happy new year

The four-passenger car can travel on battery power alone and offers additional driving range when assisted by a 1.4-liter gasoline engine. The car has already received numerous awards, including Green Car Journal’s Green Car of the Year. The EPA said the Volt has a 35-mile range on electricity alone and a range of 379 miles with gasoline and electricity. GM had been saying that the Volt had a range of 35-50 miles on one full battery charge.
