Interstate car transport

[willhouse]

Can anyone suggest a good, cheapish interstate car transport company? Have found an SRiT at a reasonable price in WA. Cheapest I have found so far to get it to Sydney is a bit over $800.
Any suggestions appreciated.

Flight sydney to perth $200
Fuel for ~4000km drive roughly $400
accom for drive (2 nights) $200
food and misc $100

Total $900

see half of australia. priceless.

I'll do it for 1k for you and i'll even wash the car before delivery. ;)

Best price I could get Melb to Brisbane was 1200 so 800 is pretty good :)

ego gave me 715 depot(forrestfield WA) to depot(enfield). car being estimate 'bulky large package' 140cm wide x 110cm tall x 240cm long x 1200kg

my calcs are probs quite wrong but... they probs do a special price for cars but as its easier to move them around

so tempted to drive it over for ya but ahah :P would love to cross aus

I feel a W.A Interstate cruise coming on.

Cheers for the advice. Never really thought about flying over and driving back, could be a good Easter activity, I get an extra 2 days off then as well which would make it worth it.
I found another company - carcarrying.com.au, $756 depot to depot, but I guess you gotta be a bit weary about the cheap ones.
Ha ha guy your deal is tempting, but I might pass :)
I'm in NZ ATM getting hitched, going to organize a pre purchase inspection when I'm back in Aus, if it hasn't been sold by then!

u may have thought of this already, but isnt there a train that runs btwn sydney and perth that has car carrying capabilities??? i know is round there somewhere, my ex's old folks did the whole, drive to sydney, train accross to wa wit the car n drive back stopping along the way.

^^^^^ wot e' said. It's called the Indian Pacific.

pretty sure its only about 400-600 to put it on the train...

i can pick it up and chuck it on the train for ya...

[kabel]

Happy to look over the car for you also.
I am sure Shay would be happy to test it on a Motorkhana circuit somewhere too !
Is it at a dealers yard ?

[gmonkey]

im guessing its the silver one in joondana with 80k kms for $13000 or the 117k kms one for $9500 in thornlie

both look good buys

[willhouse]

Yeap, thornlie, 9500. Got in touch with the chick selling it, neg. on price which is a plus. Trying to organize a check on it next week. Fingers crossed!

[willhouse]

Indian Pacific? Could be the go! read a few bad reviews about cars transported with them though, however, it's always the bad ones you hear about I guess. Cheers for the help ay btw. I guess comprehensive insurance wouldn't cover the transport though ay.

if you want one of us WA boys to go look at it let us know, im sure theres a few willing to help.

[gmonkey]
