mate personally thats cheap, my mate got stuck halfway to melbourne, from half way to melbourne cost him 2 grand, but 2 grand from melby to qld is a good price, safer and a secuered way of getting it up in one peace, then trying to fight your way with a car tralier up imo

call speedy car carriers they are good to deal with and good rates call 0754976319,2k is a bit rich.

you are going to struggle to find someone under 2k.

i drove to nsw for a wedding about 6months ago and bent a rod in the motor, and we flew back and left the car at a family members house in blacktown.

it ended up being cheaper for me to take a week off work and fly up and fix the car then get it towed back than what it was to transport it down not running.

transport was $312 from nsw to melb flights were $220 and fixing was $800 in parts and i was quoted cheapest $2400 to cart down not running on a flat bed.

Russell has done alot of towing for me around Melb and it was him that I had transport my coupe from Melb to Bris. It does cost a few $$$$ but he is the only person I would trust to do it. I loaded mine and unloaded it and he never touched it himself. It is well worth the money spent as you know it will be in the same condition it was before it left once it arrives on your new doorstep.

I had my XY transported from orange in NSW to melbourne by Auto trans, was just over $500 from memory, that was with the car running though out of reg, not sure what the cost would be for it not running.

[walker]

the problem I have is there is no brakes on it and there pretty much putting what ever price they want on it
XYLINC do you have the number for Russells enclosed car transport?

Try Trewin transport, I got a XP coupe from Newcastle to Perth for $1600. It was a roller too, And when it got here, I did not realise it had no front springs so it would of been a c#@t to load and unload!
