I have to say that this years ferry for going to Billing show will cost me only euro 128.- for a 110. Channel-Tunnel quote was about euro 240.-...In previous years I paid up to £250.- for the crossing, so my budget for parts is still intact. And if we talking about diesel cost going up blah,blah..., the quote for shipping the car to AUS from Europe was the very same as I paid in 2005. Sometimes I don`t get the point, but that is maybe just me. cheers m
