OP - The vehicle service is Folkestone-Calais and back, only.

I'd suggest crossing the channel as opposed to the Bay of Biscay (my fave is Newhaven-Dieppe, it's been around £150 return when I have used it booked in advance), then driving to Bordeaux and continuing from there will be a few hundred quid cheaper than sailing Plymouth-Santander even including the Plymouth-Newhaven & return driving costs if you're in the South West - and Dieppe's a pretty agreeable town to spend an evening or two in as well cloud9 .
