Hi Guys,
I am looking for a reputed/known interstate car mover to pick up a car near Canberra and deliver it near Brisbane. (need one ASAP

Have you guys used one before? Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Google CEVA.
They got large coverage nationally.
Will cost you around more or less 1 grand.

Spoke with Ceva today morning, seems like they are the only ones available to do the job within the time frame I have and also is coming out the cheapest of all the other options. Now got to ask dstocks if he has lowered the car
Does adding a body kit be considered as a part of 'description or modifications to the standard of the vehicles eg roof racks, bull bars, lowered suspensions etc.'? I think it would? But it only has the front kit exact to the face lift versions.

I don't think a facelift front bumper would be classed as a mod as the facelift model came factory standard with them.
Not 100% sure though

Cant remember the company I used.
But they are way cheaper than that.
RVR from QLD north to Sydney CBD for under $500
Asked them to deliver it at a certain day to which they 100% did, they don't guarantee it, but they made it happen.

they (Ceva) gave me a quote of $693 including insurance from Canberra depot to Brissy depot. Waiting on dstock's address details to get a quote for an address pick up.
Most of the companies am calling up are all booked till New Years.
If I could take some day off work, I could have just flown there and drove back. But no off before Christmas leave, have tons of releases lined up.

Should do a forum members pass the carcel
Dwayne can drive to point a
next person to point B
And we go by who's closest to each destination till it arrives near you
But you gotta pay for fuel... and a way to get home

I am happy with that as long as they don't crash the car and drive it with some love. I can always come and meet someone in Coff's Harbour
I was hinting Dwayne to come attend a QLD meet up with the car, and I pay for his fuel and air tickets back home

Is standard height and nothing on the car could really be construed as modified. Shadow Warrior, give me a call when you get back in.
