Buying a boat from Italy.

I have been looking at buying a boat thats in Italy.
Its a 27ft Formula. Condition is 'poor' but very cheap fixer upper.
I will go and fetch it myself from italy should I decide to buy it but does anyone know the cost of taking such a largertrailer via the tunnel/ferry?
Also any other advise on this subject would be hugely appreciated.

Rob.
