If so, what's a reasonable price,say from London to NY? I'm clueless about this stuff.

Car or part is the right question.

Parts are fairly cheap from what I have seen buying from eBay.....at least cheaper than other countries. The UK has fairly good rates to the US.

However, if you are going to bring an entire hood or spoiler...its going to cost your unreasonably more than shipping that via UPS Ground like you would do inland in the States.

Cars.....there are plenty of carriers on the Internet that advertize taking your car across the ocean. These are moving companies and they have all the experience and insurance to do it correctly.

I sell 1/3 of my e21 parts to the USA

UPS etc cost abomb unless you have an account, and if the perimter of the parcel is greater than 1.5m more money as it is frieght.

Also they have just used volumetric measturments ie 2.5 kg carbon fibre spoiler =£150.00 to the USA
due to the size of the box

PS cars are about £800 on a ferry port to port
