Well this thread has just helped me make a decision as to weather to drive from Gold Coast to Victoria to pick up an XC i have just brought, Not a chance in hell after reading all these horror stories
Think i'll just have to cop the $770 and have the transport get it here safely, even if i do have to wait 2 more weeks
. Better safe than sorry, plus the gearbox on the AU isn't really up to the job anyway, cheers for all the info guys..
