You need to do a lot of legwork for a proper comparison. Taxes are different in the three countries which will count for a lot of the difference.
Also, cars are rarely the same specification. The base UK spec is normally higher, so (for example) will include a radio/cd as standard plus electric windows all round whilst other countries might not. I've twice imported cars from Germany and the initial delight at the much lower price is tempered when you have to add chargeable extras to get it up to the UK spec.
As a quick example, the UK car is shown in Race Red which is a standard colour, but costs 300CHF extra in Switzerland. I couldn't be bothered to check what else was different.
