NOT VMX - Car from Brissy to Melb'
« on: January 24, 2011, 03:10:23 pm »
can anyone suggest a cost effective way to get a small car from Brisbane inner burbs to Melbourne other than drive it down?

i need to get my mothers car down when she relocates, i thought about train, but i may fly up to brissy and drive it down.

You can toss the Vespa on the back seat when you come through Sydney…

Yeah. As used by a certain Angst Bros to get stuff up to Sydeny.... :-X

Try some of the smaller car carriers Hoony (forget the big mobs). They'd have spaces on the trucks coming back south and you could probably get a good deal if you shop about. Don't send it on anything but a car-carrier though...... :-[

Still, you might make a few dollars on the side, you get a big night out and you won't have to find a cheapie carrier coz you'll have $$$$. Strikes me as a win/win  ;D
