None of these questions are being asked for the first time, or even the tenth.

As these are each pretty general queries, you might be best served if you use the board search function for the large scale answers to your questions and then any points of detail that need clarification can be easily dealt with when you ask them.

Have fun.

1.Depends on make and model, but at the least change headlights, Also hope you've owned it for more than 6 months or don't bother.
2. To Rostock in Germany then superfast ferries to Hanko
3. Depends how much you have to ship, I bought a trailor to bring my stuff over, If you can fit everything into a Transit then try and pick up a cheap one and drive it over, Both options are cheaper than using a shipping company which is very expensive.
4. Sorry no idea, but listening to people on here I would say it's not easy!

But anyway, Good luck and welcome to Finland
