I've just gone through the transport thing myself -- Adelaide to Hobart; hopefully arriving tomorrow :cheers: I'm getting excited a bit now. Unless someone here has any contacts in that area, the best advice I can give you is to shop around as the prices will vary a lot! A lot of quotes you can get online through numerous companies or brokerage sites. I used Car Transport Express as I found it to be the cheapest, but if you have more time to shop around than I did maybe you can find cheaper still. Good Luck.

How does a state to state permit work? Would I have to get both or NSW only? And doesn't it have to have a roadworthy or something? Only problem is getting there haha

Nope, whatever state the car is in get a permit from that address to your address, it's like $80 for one in QLD
It'd be way cheaper just to fly here and drive it back lol 1 and a half tanks fuel maybe 2

Is there any time restrictions? I know you have to take the direct way home and try avoid as many corners as possible as it has no rear sway :P I'll try sort something out

Meh, I've driven countless cars interstate on permits, and only pulled up once by police because I didn't have plates obviously, oh and you can smash it through every toll possible lol
Jack has no rear swaybar for 2 years lol you'll be right

You just go to a suncorp bank and buy 1 days CTP insurance
And then you go to transport and main roads and show them that and buy the permit

I could do it for you and even drive it to you if you wanted lol
