Hi There, I used CEVA logistics (the old TNT) to transport my GT from Victoria to WA and I can highly recommend them. They were easy to deal with, you can track your pride and joy on line and offer a range of services.
Hope this helps
Justin

Speedy car carriers. I cannot fault these people.

I have had 2 cars brought up from Melbourne to Brisbane. Both times cost me $770 door to door including insurance.

A tip - it was another $880 on top of that price to go from Brisbane to Gladstone.

Id suggest having it dropped at someones house in Brisbane or their depot and trailer it from there if its not too far.

If its driveable, well drive it from Brisbane.

Gday Justin, I remember your EB!! I work for Ceva and most people are pretty happy with us. The dissatisfaction rate is quite low.

If we are trusted with Lamborghinis and million dollar 'rollers then we can transport your pride and joy no wakkas.

I had a New Mazda 6 from Sydney to my Door at Wauchope using the same company & they were great, & only cost me $360.00.

Distance is about 450 k's I think.

A bloke at work used Ceva (TNT) to bring a car down from Brisbane to Melbourne for $550 was happy with them.
I"ve used Finemores from Wagga to Melb they were ok to.

anyone hear about the brand new Aston Martin CEVA sent to NT from QLD on an open truck instead of a closed truck 'by accident'.

Arrived in Darwin requiring a new paint job. Receiver not happy.

Honestly though, that would be a rarity.

They shipped my car recently and scratched the back of a wing mirror - not too bad i didn't follow it up
