That is not the actual one ( the actual one is bigger and newer and better ), it would be from north America ( not sure exactly where, deciding it it is viable first ) be around 18foot wide, 50ft long and around 15 ft high. Weight wise I would hazard a guess at around 3-4 tonnes ? ( complete guess, thinking in term of boats ). I just wondered if their was anyone here who could give a rough estimate as to the cost of shipping this to England, thousands, ten of thousands ?

Cheers

Apparently its the taxing of it that will get you not the shipping cost. How about boating across the Atlantic with a tanker behind you?
