    It sounds correct to me, as 2 of my cars were shipped there (Holland), so my guess is that's the place to send them to.

    the UK has a 17.5% vat rate and (iirc) an import tax on top of that of 10%


    what ive been told is that once a car has been imported to an EU member country an the taxes are paid its then free to move throught the EU without incurring further taxes.

    That is correct, it can move free AFTER the one EU country has had the taxes paid...as of now HOLLAND/Netherlands is the lowest.
