The process that kills em is load onto truck at depot, transport to rail, send east/west, load back onto truck and transport to depot at other end. Those two trips on and off trucks, up the steep ramps, in the hands of some monkey has been shown to be enough to kill an as new clutch let alone crunch front lips etc. Not having the car driven will at least eliminate and mechanical abuse.

They also go one step up and do prestige/race car moves as well. Give them a ring Ramon once it comes time to move it. They have a sepcial department to deal with the "non driver" and pretige moves.
Also, had my old rex on the train from Adelaide which killed the wheel bearings from sideways rocking action.
