Hi,
When you order and preview delivery options, It will say whether import duty is still to pay. From memory Fed-Ex collects the duty and you get a VAT number. With the thieving Post Office/Royal mail they collect the duty from you before they deliver and then charge you (around £10) for sending the money to the UK customs !!!

cheers

Can your parts be ordered through Rock Autos UK warehouse? That may be a bit cheaper??
