All of our shipping agents and loading teams we employ are experienced with moving vehicles and are passionate about motoring, we ship by container to ensure your vehicle is locked away from the elements as early as possible and are unloaded in secure customs bonded warehouses.

If you are using us for our full service import into the UK we will ensure only the minimum modifications for MOT are carried out to avoid changing the original look of the car in anyway

We ensure any vehicle over 30 years old where applicable will not pay any import duty and just 5% VAT, we also ensure that you pay no road tax

This year the Gumball 3000 Rally starts from London (26th May, Covent Garden) and ends up in Istanbul, Turkey.

ShipMyCar are proud to be this year’s Official Shipper of the Gumball 3000 Rally, providing shipping for many of the participants vehicles from all of the world to London and then returning their very special vehicles back to them straight afterwards.

The cars we have been trusted to work with include an Aston Martin One-77, Bugatti Veyrons, Ferrari Californias, one-off Artist Design Audi R8, Bentleys, Porsches and more.

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.

As the sun energizes the solar cells, energy can be transferred to power street signs, nearby homes and roadside businesses. In snowy climates, the collected energy could heat the roadway and melt snow and ice, eliminating the need for large fleets of plows.

Brusaw insists that glass developers can create a strong enough material that traction and durability would not be an issue. A few problems do stand in the way of course, as is typically the case with new ideas and technology. Most notable of these problems is the issue of cost. Brusaw estimates that it would costs about $4.4 million per mile to lay down this super-glass roadway. Of course, the road would eventually recoup that money and even generate a greater return, but the initial cost is a daunting one.

Brusaw hopes to begin proving the effectiveness of the technology and he is going to do so by starting smaller by teaming up with a nationwide chain to revamp existing parking lots. The lots could be heated and also over a recharging station for electric vehicles.
