fly over and drive it, half the fun
or ill do it for $500… that will cover fuel for me, and a nice drive
I'll do it for $499 … but you probably wont see me again.
I would fly over….
and have a driving holiday back.
BTW what car did he win?
…..
put on the train for about $800
Only that sort of price if you accompany it afaik.
you're probably right spackbace, that was the price when I brought my car along…
I've heard the train is noisier than expected, at least that's what mates said doing Perth - Adelaide. They barely slept!
I agree with the others, fly over drive back.
What sort of car? Is it worth driving over?Youre gonna have licensing issues over here unless you have a relative that lives here (then you're fine) - source: I'm a car salesman
Oh and big congrats :)
Did you win the bidding on eBay or won it as a prize?
Edit wasnt meant to reply to youHubby bid on Ebay.
Hello Spackbace what licensing issues?
If the car already has rego you should be fine… I think
I have used the train a couple of times, and at the time was the cheapest option. They have some restrictions (like you can't have anything in the car), but was relatively hassle free.
I'd pick fly over and drive back, but it would want to be a comfortable and reliable car. Not sure if I'd be keen to do 4000km in an unknown classic car though.
Transport to Adelaide on a Prixcar truck (formaly Toll) cost $407 for a Falcon sized car and then drive. Beware of using train as this is dearer and can damage the suspension on your car.(this i why Holdens stopped using rail for their interstate distribution in the early 90s)
advertise on gumtree for someone to drive it over, like a relocation rental.
could maybe even come to an arrangement on fuel if they are a tourist.
