I think it'd be a hell of a lot cheaper to hire a trailer and take a road trip, go party somewhere, then go pick the car up and take it home. It can be awesome if ya have a few buddies to go with and share the driving.

Yes, I've had a few quotes from auto-logistics (never done the deed though), and they seem reasonable and also do door to door if you need. Quote I had was Bris-Syd door to door $495.

Thanks
At $300 my new hilux would drink that much just in fuel getting to Brisbane and the trailer would probably add another $50 then i have to return with a hang over and a big fuel bill. Nice idea though |

About $2,000 for a premium door to door, only your car on one enclosed truck, with one driver you can call him anytime for an update on the car. If you share the cost ie. someone takes a car there you bring one back it would be half that cost.
Only guy I would ever use for a good car for a project rust bucket there are cheaper ways. pm if you need details. |
