We handle all import requirements into the UK for the Gumball participants ensuring their vehicles clear customs once their car has arrived via sea/air and deliver their vehicle to our storage depot in London prior to rally start, or to whichever destination they choose such as their hotel

After the Rally has finished we will be collecting vehicles straight away in the highest quality car transporters, fully enclosed and insured to £20m per truck. Vehicles will then be delivered back to Gumballer addresses around the world via sea, air and road.

For any Gumballer still requiring transport arrangements please do contact us ASAP, we have arranged to bring cars back from Istanbul to London & Europe straight after the rally in fully enclosed transporters. Vehicles can then be delivered direct to your UK address or sent onwards to whichever destination you require via sea/air.

Transport to the rally includes storage at our facility outside Heathrow where we can arrange for your car to be fuelled and delivered to the rally start, or we can organise to have your vehicle delivered direct to Raccoon first for graphic work.

If you are into your cars please do come down to London for the Rally start as it really is one of the best car shows of the year! To get an idea of the buzz around the start of the rally check out this video filmed from the passenger seat of Gumball 3000 founder Maximillion Cooper’s Morgan:

F1 in HD finally! https://www.shipmycar.co.uk/f1-in-hd-finally/ Fri, 14 Jan 2011 22:58:16 +0000 http://www.shipmycar.co.uk/?p=732 Finally F1 will be broadcast in 1080i HD for next year!

Motorsports fans, rejoice. Formula One took its sweet time in rolling out coverage in glorious High Definition, but starting next season, viewers will be able to soak up all the open-wheel action in 1080i resolution. According to Autosport, F1 organizers have been toying with the notion of delivering an HD feed for some time. This winter, Formula One Management began testing brand-new equipment to make sure that broadcasts could be made at the rate of 42 mbps. Those tests apparently went well, as FOM has announced that every F1 camera will be replaced with new HD hardware. In-car cameras, meanwhile, will still be standard definition.

So far, a handful of broadcasters have already committed to carrying the new HD coverage, including Sky Germany and Globo in Brazil. There’s no word as to whether American fans will be able to sink their eyeballs into the 1080i broadcast or if we’ll be stuck with a scaled-down version of the feed. According to Autosport, that’s exactly what most viewers in the UK can expect. Rumor has it that the BBC has its eyes on broadcasting the races on its HD channel and then downscaling the footage for the rest of its viewers. Thanks to all for the tips!

If you are organising a motorsport or motoring event including races, shows, events, exhibitions or rallies please do not hesitate us to assist with handling all of your logistic needs involving your car shipping requirements
