Getting A Car Transported From Perth To Sydney

[iwanta34gtr]

Hello every1,

Im interested in a car which is located in Perth and I live in Sydney.

I was hoping to get advice on any companies which transport cars from Perth to Sydney and a rough idea on cost if anyone knows.

Thanx.

[N1GTR]

Ceva?

[oweban]

I think I was quoted $700 to get a car from Griffith to Sydney... ouch

[iwanta34gtr]

THanks N1GTR and cpd.

N1 have u used ceva before? I got quoted $1270. Do u think this reasonable 4 a r34 gtr?

[N1GTR]

No i've never used them - instead a commodore with a trailer .....but it's a bit too far to do that from perth haha

[Galois]

Why are you going all the way to perth for the car? Surely there must be something suitable closer?

COuld always fly over and road trip back, google maps says it's only a 43hr drive

[iwanta34gtr]

Thanks N1.

Galois. No way im 2 soft to drive back. Have u seen wolf creek?

Using distance found off the net between the two cities and todays petrol price, fuel alone (13L per hundred) will be over $800. Plus flight to get there, and hotel rooms.

Driving it isnt worth the effort

Thanx again N1 and Jackdanielz i really appreciate the info.

Just in case it was mistaken, I wasn't being serious lol. Shipping is the cheap way.

But why a car on the other side of the country? It couldn't get much further away? It might even be cheaper to import?

Galois good question. It is the same question i am asking myself. It is hard to find a clean bayside blue vspec 34. I've been looking every day for months and also have dealers looking 4 me in japan.

I originally rounded this 1 off because its on the other side of the country, but for some reason I cant stop thinking about it so want to further explore it as an option.

You missed the cleanest one i've seen, Terry_R34GTR sold his and is based in Sydney.

Yes N1 Terrys one is very nice but was just a bit out of my price range.

I called Ceva 2day and cos the car sits quite low it has to go on a sports and prestige trailer with hydrolic lifters. They will call me back with a price within the next 48 hours. Will advise price when i hear it. Thanx again.
