Not to sure myself how you would export it but phone up a few shipping companies they should help you out. I got a feeling you get a massive tax for importing car's in PAK.
I know a person who does export cars to Pakistan. I will try and contact him and get some info.

Contact a local shipping agent. You require your ownship papers to show them
They will cut a Bill of Lading for you and give the ‘Port’ details for car drop off. Mine was the ‘Southampton’ port.
You’ll be informed by phone or mail the ‘PortCall’ in Pkaitsna.
Get your car ‘Greased up for the journey’ to protect against sea water and moister while enroute..local workshops can advise you on this…
never use wax to coat the car body for this journey…

Re: exporting
the catch here is import duty which can be as much as 120% for cars and even more for bigger vehicles
