    If I were you, I’d book a cabin on the cargo ship and literally accompany it to NY and make sure no rif-raf happens. Then witness the transfer because any kind of “shit” can and will happen there! Yes, and then the final leg to Bermuda.
    I want to see it all! Does anyone else want to see the whole adventure?

    • @chrisberg7009

      Most companies stopped bringing passengers onboard for cargo journeys during COVID and it's never really picked back up again, more hassle than it's worth it seems.

      The car will be in an enclosed container, nothing to see.

    When we lived there my dad was a mechanic at the Esso garage opposite Port Royal Golf Course. He went to the port to pick up a brand new car for the man who owned the garage at the time which he'd just had imported. It was "too wide" due to the 1970's huge sticky out door handles. Luckily the car was collected, door handles changed and it was then OK. It was a bit posher than the Hillman Imp we had! LOL! Looking forward to seeing the island again on your future video.

    Can’t wait to see this over here. We do have one or two z4s and an SLK on island. A few old boys have the old triumph convertibles. Would love to know the costs to import.
