I' from Slovenia. Looking forward to visit your part of EU at summer with my 1982 T3 dehler (England, Scotland, Walles, Ireland)..I' would be grateful for any advices on see crossings (particulary about ferrys), since it seems to be the bigest expence.
Best regards from snow covered Slovenia..

Re: Ferrys...T3 can't swim
Hello and welcome.
Go for Norfolkline Dunkerque to Dover, low cost and every two hours. Book direct with them not through a ticket agency.
If you book through an agency and have to change your journey they charge you a lot more then Norfolkline.
There are other routes such as Zeebrugge/Rotterdam - Hull. If you are going North to Scotland there are ferries to the north of England. They are always more expensive but you save fuel and time.

I don't know if its a high-top thing, or the fact that we often travel at busy times of year (girlfriend being a teacher), but I find Norfolkline is rarely the cheapest these days.
We've got our best deals recently by booking Dover-Calais crossings at unpopular hours - midnight or early morning - and then sleeping at the terminal car park in Calais before moving on. Both P&O and SeaFrance can offer very cheap prices if you do this.

Be prepared to pay to get to Ireland unless you go from Liverpool/Fleetwood to Dublin/Belfast which takes 9 hours and would drive me insane.
It cost me £160 to go from Stranrear (scotland) to Belfast (N.Ireland) then from Dublin (eire) back to Holyhead (wales) and that was over 9 months in advance and using a loophole I found on an internet discount discussion forum which is no longer available (my ferries were all with Stenaline)
