Title: i30 transport route Nošovice to UK
Post by: Lorian on September 11, 2009, 10:12:23

Just managed to find out how the i30s get from Nošovice to the UK.

"The i30 cars travel on trucks and ferries to the UK; they cross the Channel on the Calais - Dover line"

Straight from the horses mouth  :razz: thanks HMMC.

Just wish I had taken a photo of the label on mine before it was PDI'd. I'm sure it said Tilbury.

They go to Tilbury by transporter, where they are unloaded and have their import checks done. Mine sat there for nearly three weeks.
