Car transport

[boxhead]

Hello to all the Cobra people.

I have just bought a car for my wife, it is in Geelong and I am looking at ways to get it to me in Alice Springs.

I can get it moved from Adelaide to Alice for $200.
But the expensive bit is Geelong to Adelaide, the best price I have found so far is $400 with TNT.
Does anyone have any contacts in this field?

The car is roadworthy, registered and drives.

Sadly with no competition for Qantas, the cost of a one way ticket is about $350.00, by the time I add fuel, food and accomodation costs, it is cheaper to truck it up.

Option 1 = Transporter approx $600.00 May need to add $50 to move within Adelaide.

Option 2 = Fly to Melbourne on a Friday arvo $350
Stay at Mums house overnight in Melbourne, $00
Have a beer with Aussie Mike and Cobra people $xxx
Fuel costs to drive, Geelong - Alice Approx $250
Accomodation at Glendambo Approx $175
Food for me Approx $080

Approx Total Minimum $855

So option 1 is the cheapest.

Me being a tight ass am just trying to get it cheaper.

Thanks for any help or suggestions
