group Price!! Shipping .org to Germany!!



I've have a friend in the air-cargo busniess and we have chatted about this 
a little. He says that if a large enough group of people and their vehicles 
go there is a chance that air cargo would be about the same price as 
shipping. I need some information I don't have access to here in the 
office..  the overall dims (height, width, lenght) of a scirocco, wheelbase 
and weight.  Tia
