    Drive it =)Nothing beats a road trip =)

    • +1. Heck, OP, let my fly over there and drive it for you, if you're not up to it. Always wanted to do a Perth-Sydney trip.

      • Sounds like the op wants it transported? :-(

  • stuff that chuck it on the train. Or contact ceva car carrying, they won't be too expensive. I know its about $1200-$1500 Melbourne to Perth so yeah.

      East > West is always more expensive because there's more demand for freight on the train.
      Heading West > East it's much cheaper due to lots of empty space on the train.

      $989 from Perth to Sydney in fact. Pretty good price IMO.

    • I would probably drive but it's worth keeping in mind that you'll be adding 4000km to your car and spending $600-$800 on fuel.

    Try Tolls they have a lot of carriers coming back empty perth-adelaide due to holdens so should be able to do a good rate. Maybe send to adelaide and drive fron there? Do your homework before using the train as i believe it can damage your suspension in fact that is why Holdens changed from rail to road a number of years ago.

  • I'd sell it and buy another one in Sydney to be honest. Perth to Sydney is just too big a distance to bother with (unless the car is particularly unique, which yours isn't).

    My housemate's fiancé moved to Perth recently from Adelaide and took her car on the train, cost about $700 from memory, not really worth it IMO considering the car was a late 90s Honda Prelude that wasn't even in good condition. But the train trip didn't damage her car at all.

    • thanks all for the input, yeah i would drive it as well from perth to sydney if im not travelling alone.
      and i would sell the car but so many memories from this car =(
