Anyone know approx how much it would cost to transport a car over on the train from the east?

circa 1.5k . to be more specific, have overall dimensions handy with weights etc and call TNT, FCL to name a couple. oh and the car has to be running in decent cond or u have to resort to cheaper alternatives that will fork it on and off yadda yadda

cheers mate

$1.5K sounds a bit much. Ive been quoted around $1K for transport via train with insurance. Although that was one year ago.

hey simon one of my mates dads owns TOLL transport, not sure if they do cars but i can check 4u.

yeah wicked. its just another option i was looking at if i cant find a car i like in perth

yea i will talk to my mate prob this wknd n will find out if they do cars and if i can get a good price.

For 1.5k you could fly over, have a holiday and drive it back!

You can bring it over on a truck but it's open to the environment and the red dust is just about everywhere on and in the car through the vents etc. The train isn't any better, prices vary, ring around you might be able to get it down under a $1,000, try get a price from where it's being shipped as well as from Perth.

yeah if i end up bringing a car over from the east, i'd ensure it is enclosed, i hate red dirt, gets in everywhere
