I recently drove Melbourne to Perth, so naturally did Adelaide in there too. Car was a 2001 Mitsi Lancer, that didn't miss a beat. I'd recommend Perth to Balladonia in day one (800Km), staying at the Balladonia Roadhouse - it will be the best accomodation you have on the Nullabor. Day two would be Balladonia to Ceduna (850Km), staying at the beachside motel which has excellent security and adequate rooms. Day three would be Ceduna to Adelaide (650Km).

This does not take into account much "sightseeing" time, which I'd also thoroughly recommend too, hence 3-6 days to drive it easily and see the sights.

Car wise, renew your cooling system - new coolant, check all your rubber hoses and alloy outlets, and get your aircon working if you have it - it will be money well spent especially given your Summer timetable. your car will do it, if it does Perth summer without dramas, all the roads you'll used will be sealed too.

If you want any more info, ask, or search out a couple of threads I authored in the SA section of Toymods around September, 2003
