It sounds like the stuff you want to order is very bulky and could take up a couple of pallets. I had a gearbox brought back by a courier from the UK recently and you are talking about 150 Euros.
It could be cheaper to bring a van over and collect the stuff yourself.
If you go through MiniSpares website, they won't be able to calculate the shipping for you there and then. You should ring them up directly and ask them to quote you for shipping. In the meantime, price getting a van over on the ferry and have a figure in your head for comparison.
Hope it helps,

Irene Woods of Woods Motors in Aughnacloy Co. Tyrone, is an agent of Mini Sport, she gets things in regularly, Might be worthwhile getting the stuff through her and going up to collect it rather than getting it posted/couriered over.
