OK, I am curious. No, I am not interested in the machines (unless it
was a VAX 9000).

How much could one reasonable expect to pay for getting a big VAX,
lets say a 350 kg in the typical DEC cabinet, from mainland Europe to
Britain? Or from Britain to mainland Europe? Or even to and from
Scandinavia?

Sure, one could hire movers and riggers - pay them enough and they
will deliver a locomotive - but what about typical on-the-cheap
hobbyist methods?
