I am buying a new GT from a Melbourne dealer but dont think I will have time to fly down from Brisbane to pick it up. Everything has just fallen badly for delivery.
I had a search but no real recent threads for companies to look into and those to be avoided. I am a fussy **** and even slight marks on the car will annoy me not to mention finding the odo with extra K's and half bald tyres. Any advice is welcomed.

Can I ask why you didn't buy locally? Don't use any general transport car carriers.

Thanks George. I will call them tomorrow.
Dash, I gave the local mobs first bite of the cherry, but they are useless. One dealer couldn't even offer me a brochure let alone a test drive. I understand why the falcon figures look so grim, some dealers don't want to sell cars apparently. Just no service, no returning calls, disinterest in my ute etc. Its not just here in Brisbane, a dealer in Melbourne would not deal with me because I have a trade yet I am on the phone trying to buy the car at the advertised price there and then. Not interested. I found the same when I was trying to buy the missus Ranger. Any ways couldn't be happier with the new car, trade and the overall service from the dealer who happened to be first on the phone after my initial round of enquiries. Cant wait to get in the new one.
