How Much in FUEL from NSW to Perth $$$ Mon, 22 August 2005 11:49 Go to next message
http://carsales.com.au/pls/carsales/!cs_content.pr ivate_vehicle?vehicle_id=2483508&current_rec=8 &used_rec=2&total_rec=10&sort_type=&am p;am p;total_rec=10&sort_type=&price_max=10000& amp; amp;make_id=8&model_id=140&state_id=-1& ;amp ;search_distance=25

$4k for the GZ and currently a Ticket from PERTH to SYD 1 way is $270

now what i need to know is how much in FUEL is the car to bring from NSW to WA ?

if under $600 then i will consider doing this.

PS. Also consider ive never seen this wide country of ours and wouldnt mind the 3 - 4 day drive.

so considering the whole breakdown thing would be pretty awful - if its around $1k to freight it over here what would be the best way to go about it, contact someone in NSW to test it and put it on a train or what ??

this is the first time ive ever thought about this kinda stuff .. just needing some advice

even if you fly over check the car buy it stick it on freight home and fly back.. id rather it then taking the risk with a car you dont know. like if you knew the car really well and were comfortable in the reliablity then sure but its a bit of an unknown quantity so id rather spend the $$ and ship it back. id hate to think what a tow would cost from the middle of the nullabor ?

I sure its cheaper to put the car on the train, instead of using the usual freight Co's and get yourself a train ticket with it.
